We *don't* want all fonts to have MetaInfo files however; some fonts are poor quality or only contain some glyphs (e.g. the Ubuntu title font) and we don't want to show those. > 2.

The metadata extractor will accept files without copyright, but it's rather stricter on licensing; we need to make sure the output AppStream metadata is a sane and with a redistributable license.
