Do you mean like this:

                <edit name="family" mode="prepend" binding="strong">
                        <string>DejaVu Sans Mono</string>
                        <string>Noto Sans Mono CJK SC</string>
                        <string>WenQuanYi Zen Hei Mono</string>
                        <string>HYSong</string>
                        ...
                </edit>

Title:
  change default CJK fonts to Noto CJK

Status in fonts-noto-cjk package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  just realize that fonts-noto-cjk is available in the repository, finally its packaged.
  i don't really know about korean community.
  But for Chinese and Japanese community, i think that the answer is clear.
  noto-cjk is definitely better what we had before, like fonts- wqy and fonts-droid.
  Android community had received these complains for years, finally they got them fixed on lollipop.
  Fedora also set it as default chinese font start from F21.
  and of course, i still hope that ubuntu could drop those 69-language-selector fontconfig files, just like what F13 did.
