maybe life could be made easier for those who have the font available
anyway?

a msttfonts-support package would supply just the defoma hint files for
the windows fonts and a command to copy and install the font files.

if users have mounted there windows partitions this could be done automatically 
via
 locate .ttf | grep -i <font> | grep -v /usr/share/wine
and choosing the most appropriate  font files for copying.
The user has to be informed when doing this, as he has to remove the files, if 
he quits his windows license.

Candidates are Wingding* and of course Tahoma.
