Do we talk about TrueType or PS Type1 fonts here?
Both of which might be useful to other systems, including
X11, ghostscript, openoffice, etc.
For truetype, the current naming scheme seems to be
"ttf-*", so that could be something like "ttf-cm" or so. No
idea.
For Type1, I can only see a very few t1-* packages.
The next interesting question here is: How much of the
fonts is needed by the typical debian-build? Will it need
all the .mf sources? Will it be happy with T1 fonts?
Is it worthwhile to split off all the unneeded fonts into
tetex-fonts?

Sounds good to me!
