In case you've not noticed the so-called kernel console userspace is
totally unable right now to turn standard vectorised fonts into
bitmaps suiting a changing variety of hardware and encodings, and
relies on manually pre-processed bitmap fonts precious few people
maintain and adapt to environment changes.

The day it gains parity with xorg on this front, I totally agree with
you there would not be any problem maintenance-side.
