[Cuis-dev] Namespaces?

I'm not commenting on Namespaces because I'm not actively working on 
that myself.

Cuis supports TrueType since a couple of weeks ago. Just do 'World / 
Preferences... / Load extra fonts' and then 'World / Preferences... / 
Set font' and 'World / Preferences... / Font Sizes...'.

Before supporting TrueType, Cuis already had very reasonable support for 
making text and labels readable at various display resolutions and user 
eyesight needs, just by using 'World / Preferences... / Font Sizes...'. 
This may be enough, especially if you prefer to avoid loading extra code 
and stuff in your image.

Cheers,
