Also, one should remember that many strings displayed during D-I come from *outside* D-I (tasksel, iso-codes, debconf, apt, dpkg...). So, I don't really see how we could safely check whether these strings are covered by the stripped fonts. And, frankly, I think that the benefit in terms of memory space would be pretty small compared to the requirement of G-I anyway. --
