I don't know, I would need to see some details, like how will this
preference be visible to the display engine.

Please note that the changes I've shown only notice when the `default'
face is being remapped, they change nothing in how that default face
is computed.  So I suspect we won't be able to use the same mechanism
to do what you want, because what you want changes the way the default
face is computed (IIUC).
