There are two points here:

* The font replacement in the test machinery was a justified workaround
  to test export when setting both tex and non-tex fonts in the source
  was not possible.
  
  With LyX 2.2, this is no longer needed and should be replaced by a font
  setting in the source. This allows easier verification of problems "by
  hand".

* Setting both, mainfont and sansfont to the same sans-serif font to prevent
  a false positive error and get a working export instead of a test failure
  due to a reported bug is imo not the right thing.
