It should be noted that the standard aliases are not the same as the fonts selected in the GNOME font properties dialog; the standard fontconfig names are configurable only through /etc/fonts/fonts.conf and ~/.fonts.conf. The reason that we didn't try to make them follow the user's font configuration is that it was problematic to have the font a particular name referred to change while a program was running, while the fonts in the font preferences dialog should take affect immediately.
