Yup, terribly fun on a PW.

First screenshot is Scheherazade with Caecilia selected, second is "pure" Scheherazade, by sacrificing Baskerville. Notice the difference in line heights, and for some punctuation (?) marks [I hope that doesn't apply to diacritical marks than happen to be covered by the selected font...].

I'll check if the PW changes broke something on the Touch, and commit this.

On a sidenote, by virtue of how Amazon implemented Code2000, simply having the font in the cache is enough to get it picked up if it's the only one supporting a certain script. But I'd hit the layout issue with my custom FT (not sure how it would behave with Amazon's FT, but since PubFonts are 'broken' there too, I'm guessing the same).
