Bug Description
I installed Ubuntu Beta Mono R17 font and "fc-list" shows it, I can not select it in Konsole (my main terminal app) or KMail (as monospace for message view).
Font can be selected in gVim, gnome-terminal as a font but both those apps does not limit list of fonts to monospace ones.

codeman38: has done some work on this (I thought we'd already nailed it by getting rid of the overwide advances on the polytonics and the ffi/ffl ligatures. There's two avenues:
1. the OS/2 metadata
2. zero-width codepoints that should be mono-width
