I'd like to remind you about that gdiplus font rendering bug, that doesn't happen with either native Japanese font, nor the one that codeweavers part of wine dev team uses, but it does with IPAMona, where glyphs get shifted in wine.
Same app fails to pick a decent font (at least in some of the places), if no relevant FontSubstitutes are set up, so automatic solutions don't work all of the time. On the other hand, I don't see wine either using or reimplementing pango (there's enough "fun" with uniscribe).
Microsoft had it just too easy *knowing* which fonts are available.
