The problem I'm referring to has nothing to do with fuzzy-fonts or with
Cantarell. Please read the following bug-report and article that describes
the problem I'm referring to. The problem affects a very wide variety of
fonts and how they're rendered in web-browsers. Using desktop environment
tools such as gnome-tweak-tool does not fix the problems.

I'm just looking for more information and some indication that the problem
can be fixed eliminating the need for external scripts or manual
configuration.

If it's really broken it should be removed upstream.
Nevertheless, it's not broken here if I set it to slight, therefor your
argument is invalid.
