FYI I believe Fontconfig allows multiple language tags to be specified per
font. I suspect this is probably what should be done here: list all the system
locales for which Sans Arabic should be the default.


I must also say I'm confused by the it's-Fontconfig-it's-libass back-and-forth
earlier in this discussion. For a start, the lang element has been removed, so
it makes no difference whether libass or Fontconfig handle it or ignore it. At
the same time, if the element is restored, it's been shown that the font
configuration does work as expected in libass, so this tells us that *either*
(or both) Fontconfig or libass handle the tag but doesn't tell us which of the
two does it. As a matter of fact, Fontconfig's pattern substitution is the one
that handles the tag in this scenario, but Fontconfig doesn't remove the font
from the complete font list seen by libass: it would be impossible to render
Arabic subtitles if it did.
