[Bug 5956] html_test('font_face_bad') triggers if font name ends with numeric

Comment: this rule has a poor ratio anyway.  Quoting a June report:  
HTML_FONT_FACE_BAD:  bad, avg S/O=0.70 avg Spam%=0.36 avg Ham%=0.15
but 70% of the hits I get are ham.  

Some typeface names include spaces within them, some oriental ones look like
face=3D=CB=CE=CC=E5

and then there are mistakes in ham like:
face=3D"arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"
face=3D"#6f6f6f"

If the rule is refined, maybe it should include these cases.  The HTML 4.0 spec
http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/present/graphics.html#h-15.2.2 seems to say that any
character in the document character set can be used, not just [a-z], but spaces
need to be trimmed.
