Current thought exercise: OFL-with-RFN fonts where the RFNs are not used anywhere in the original font name....

    It would be pretty antisocial to declare RFNs in your font license that just included random words you like, but (a) You probably still have to worry about two-derivatives-back restrictions (e.g., an OFL-licensed Adobe Utopia derivative) & (b) I think it's reasonable that people might want to put their foundry name in the RFN list, even if it's not in the original font name. Yes, it would be a pathological person who attempted to intentionally create confusion with such a rename, but hey....
