We need a way to refer to specific fonts when they are mentioned in DisplayItems.
We can't send Fonts between tasks; the layout task and render task need their own FontCaches. So, some sort of normalized naming scheme might be in order.
(The other option is to do all font caching/rendering in a separate task and pass around cookies, but I can't see how this will ever perform well enough if FreeType and CoreText are not thread-safe or parallelizable)
