Not necessarily. This isn't a Windows API feature we're looking at, we're just
handling the same configuration key Windows uses to configure equivalent
functionality. We don't need to match Windows configuration-for-configuration.
The driving factor for this functionality isn't that Windows does it, but that
Wine's Font Substitutes functionality does it, as per my commit message in
comment 1.

The actual functionality we are trying to match in Windows is "fonts are able
to pull glyphs from other fonts to handle other character sets" and "MS Shell
Dlg font substitution behaviour based on locale"

If desired/needed, some kind of "FontLinks customised, do not rewrite" registry
key would be perfectly valid. _I_ don't think such a thing is needed or
desirable, so I won't be working on one. ^_^
