Vera -> DejaVu fonts?

Should we import the DejaVu fonts as default TrueType fonts for
xenocara, i.e., as replacement for the Vera fonts?

The DejaVu fonts are an extension of Bitstream Vera and are under
the same license.  The DejaVu fonts cover a greater range of
characters.  This helps a lot with Firefox for scientific texts,
IPA, and Greek.  Our embryonic port of Chromium profits even more,
(e.g., Cyrillic works) since Chromium seems less apt at cobbling
together glyphs from different (non-TrueType?) fonts.

Are there any downsides to importing DejaVu?
