    Description

      Currently support for fonts weights in Qml is skewed towards bold like weights.
      "Font.Light 25
      Font.Normal 50
      Font.DemiBold 63
      Font.Bold 75
      Font.Black 87 "

      But the trend this days is for the use of Light fonts that becomes only possible to use via a repackaging and renaming of a font that a designer might want to use... this is not practical or even legal to do in many cases..

      So my request is to include more Light weights in Qml.

      Also the IMO current way of selecting the weight is not the best way to to expose it.
