Currently when fonts are set in editable text, just that font face is set. However, good HTML practice involves specifying one or more fallback fonts, with the last one being a generic name like 'serif' and 'sans-serif'. I would suggest a couple of options: A delegate method where the controller can specify a list of font faces to use when a particular font face is requested -- this will provide quite a bit of flexibility. Another approach would be to have the traits of the font examined to determine automatically if it's serif, sans-serif, monospace, or fantasy as a fallback.
