Agreed. I'd like to suggest that the flatpak environment should be
taught how to map font directory names that it sees to cache file names
generated externally; then the existing md5(pathname) approach to cache
file generation will 'just work'

Presumably each flatpak has to get a custom font configuration to point
it back at the external fonts; having that include a mapping to the
external names seems like a pretty simple change to me.
