Well, we already have locale specific bindings in
69-language-selector-zh-??.conf. 65-fonts-takao-*.conf are for e.g. an
English locale. And the existence of the latter is maybe the only
reason why we also need 64-language-selector-prefer.conf.

After having fiddled with fontconfig configuration lately, and
especially if the default font for Japanese and Korean is changed to
Noto Sans CJK, I begin to feel that it would be achievable to get rid
of the 69-language-selector-zh-??.conf files. What I think is needed is
to consider the configuration of all the CJK languages carefully, and
to do so in the beginning of a development cycle.
