I am not sure whether this is a valid feature request ...

I know noto is a very large package, and it is not good to have a large package
(chromium) to depend on an even larger one (noto). However, for people who need
CJK fonts, they now have duplicate files on disks because both noto (manually
installed) and noto-lite (pulled in by chromium) are installed. Do you think it
is a good idea to provide an option to switch between these two packages?
