I don't understand why we should suddently worry about the number of fonts 
we consider.  During ~8 years (after bf0d3f76dc) _all_ attributes (not 
just the size/weight/slant/height ones) were set to nil (in 
realize_x_face), and I don't think there were any bug reports about Emacs 
being too slow to select fonts.  Face realization is something that 
happens only rarely.
