Please give me more context, like a screenshot before and after and why this
can't be fixed in fontconfig itself. This would be yet another fontconfig API
hack in st.
Step to Reproduce:
1. Install M+ 1m from https://osdn.jp/projects/mplus-fonts/releases/
(or "sudo apt-get install fonts-mplus" in Debian)
2. Run ./st -f "M+ 1m"
This issue isn't reproduced with only "M+ 1m" but other dual-width
fonts, such as "TakaoGothic" (fonts-takao-gothic in Debian).
Justification:
GNOME VTE and Emacs also use such kind of hack.[1][2]
