I have noticied that if you add font to c:\windows\font, it becomes visible 
next time you open Font dialog (say, in MS Word), or press LMB on Font List 
drop-down box in MS Word.
I think Windows converters (people switched to KDE from Windows) would expect 
similar behavior.

I recognize that KDE is not aware of new font being copied to, say, ../MyFonts 
dir, by I think KDE can recognize that there are some changes in installed 
fonts when user (or 3rd party installer) invokes #xftcache.
Is there any signal communication between Xft and Qt/KDE?
