    QFont has families to provide with a set of fonts to choose from:
    https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qfont.html#setFamilies

    There is also the font style hint that would allow the font matching to prefer a certain type of fonts: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qfont.html#StyleHint-enum

    I'm looking to provide font preferences for Windows and Mac, monospace fonts. What's the canonical way to provide a list of preferred fonts in QML?

    Is there something like in CSS? families looked to be doing that.
    But also a generic name, like monospace if all preferred are missing?

    The QML font docs didn't quite show me what I was hoping to find. But I've found that there's often more available to QML than what I manage to figure out from the docs.
    https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-font.html#details
    Should all QFont properties be available to QML?
