Please note that the default for Chinese is being switched in xenial
from "Droid Sans Fallback" to "Noto Sans" fonts (bug #1468027).
Considering that, the timing for starting a discussion about some other
font isn't the best. Closing.

Title:
CJK interface default fonts replacing
Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
I hope present CJK interface default fonts can be replaced with Source Han Sans (http://blog.typekit.com/2014/07/15/introducing-source-han-sans/), which is more beautiful, well-designed, free, open source, pan-cjk fonts, more importantly, It has 7 font-weights, much more than present font, which only has one font-weight, (In my opinion, CJK font display should at least have two font-weights, regular and bold, not like present font, which makes users harder to catch the content's key points(which should be shown in REAL bold font-weight, instead of system automatically produced FAKE one)).
It can also help improving the UX of CJK interface.
