+/** In 5a820bb8fae34591be5ac6d19a73461b9dab532a there were some changes to subtitle font management.
+ *
+ *  With StringTextFileContent we used to write a <Font> tag to the metadata with the id "font".  Users
+ *  could then set a font file that content should use, and (with some luck) it would end up in the DCP
+ *  that way.
+ *
+ *  After the changes we write a <Font> tag for every different font "id" (i.e. name) found in the source
+ *  file (including a <Font> with id "" in the .srt case where there are no font names).
+ *
+ *  However, this meant that making DCPs from old projects would fail, as the new code would see a font name
+ *  in the source, then lookup a Font object for it from the Content, and fail in doing so (since the content
+ *  only contains a font called "font").
+ *
+ *  To put it another way: after the changes, the code expects that any font ID (i.e. name) used in some content
+ *  will have a <Font> in the metadata and so a Font object in the TextContent.  Without that, making DCPs fails.
+ *
+ *  To work around this problem, this check_font_ids() is called for all subtitle content written by DoM versions
+ *  before 2.16.14.  We find all the font IDs in the content and map them all to the "legacy" font name (if there
+ *  is one).  This is more-or-less a re-examine()-ation, except that we try to preserve any settings that
+ *  the user had previously set up.
+ *
+ *  See #2271.
