Lots of people expect that LibreOffice would just use the font that is installed. So, for those users using LibreOffice in Windows or in OSX who have access to the MSO fonts, would definitely expect that opening a document that someone else sends your way open with the correct fonts applied.
We already have enough issues with interoperability with MS Office - going out of our way to add yet another (a replacement font even if you have the correct font installed presumably legally) seems like asking for trouble. Maybe I'm misunderstanding the replacement table but if it's "replace, even if font is installed" - I'm no fan.
