I don't think this will work, since /usr/share/fonts and
/usr/share/fonts/truetype have multiple subdirs (per package) that has
the actuall fonts, does context look into subdirs as well or the top
dir only.
What about querying fontconfig about installed fonts (which I guess what
XeTeX does under linux) this allows calling the font by the actual font
name not filename.
