I think I've missunderstood the problem. I thought it was about addon creators wanting to make windows which feels similar to the rest of the skin, but I guess its about being able to create windows which looks the same no matter the skin?
I actually didn't know that scripts couldn't provide their own fonts.xml and I wonder if its hard to add, I'll need to go through the code a bit to see if I can answer why this hasn't been added, if there is in fact a technical problem with having it.

Montellese has a PR for that now iirc (fonts.xml)

What's happened to Jonathan anyway? Is it just 'real life'? Hope he is ok, he has always been such an amazing contributor and level head for the project...

Fingers crossed! But the time commitment for even casual contributions is pretty huge so hardly surprising!

thanx for all the input everyone!
reading back through all the responses, i conclude the opinion of the average skinner is somewhat along these lines:
"i will add it if i really have to, but i don't believe it will really help"
since there's no majority that believes the suggestion i made would be really beneficial to addon developers,
i'm not going to add this to our list of required skin changes for I****.
