Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
It would be cool to have a consistent way to use host fonts from within toolbox.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
I may be tricky to find a general consistent approach, though what I personally do
is for Fedora toolboxes (on Fedora):
`sudo ln -s /run/host/usr/share/fonts /usr/local/share/`
without running fc-cache.
Though apparently bad things can happen with this for Silverblue with fc-cache due to the timestamps.
FWIW, distrobox-init seems to do something like this:
