Korean default font change (un-core-*-fonts -> nanum-*-fonts)

Hi,

I heard that Ubuntu is going to change the default Korean font from
un-core to nanum within their P release cycle:

http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ubuntu.devel.discuss/13090
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-meta/+bug/836430

Since I maintain both font packages in Fedora, I would like to ask
Korean users whether it is a good thing to do as well in F17.

AFAIK, the only concern discussed there was that they dropped
nanum-coding font (a monospace variant of nanum-gothic, distributed as a
separate upstream tarball) from the default install, due to size
limitation.  I guess we could also simply mark it as optional in comps
(like un-extra-*-fonts).

Regards,
