Bug Description

Normally fonts have styles like bold, regular, italics... But there are certain fonts that only have a single style. For example if you use the font with the name Myfont in an svg file created by Adobe Illustrator, you will get an svg file that contains Myfont-Regular as font name. Inkscape cannot handle this font name as it awaits only the font name Myfont and not Myfont-Regular. My proposal is that if Inkscape cannot find the font Myfont-Regular, it should automatically look for the font Myfont-Regular when opening an svg file.
