What's is even better is the underlying system.
With XeTeX and LuaTeX you can load font either by the filename
(file:...) or the fontname (name:...) but since the end of last year
there is a new system for MkIV. I call the system the spec-interface and
it let you load a font by its familyname and value for the weight and style.
The syntax for the spec-interface is:
spec:<familyname>-<fontweight>-<fontstyle>-<fontwidth>
A example how you can use this load 'Times New Roman Regular' is
spec:timesnewroman-normal-normal
for 'Times New Roman Italic' the definition is
spec:timesnewroman-normal-italic
and for 'Times New Roman Bold Italic' it is
spec:timesnewroman-bold-italic
As you can see in the definiton above where I left the 'fontwidth' out
the value for fontweight, fontstyle and fontwidth are optional.
Another example for the spec-interface was shown by Hans a while ago:
