Nowhere yet - when the theme site gets fms ability I'll bundle them with
the theme. I agree this isn't ideal either, as it'd be nicer to have
somewhere people can get them from centrally.

What happens if you try to select this font as the UI font? Does
anything show? Maybe some way to filter fonts with FM in the name? I
suspect this isn't feasible for Browse Fonts as it is just the file
browser, maybe the font loader could refuse to load a font with FM in
the name as the UI font? All speculation here :)
