 Replying to [comment:113 kontur]:
 > I couldn't find "wp_check_filetype_and_ext" in this reference:
 https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Filter_Reference but it seems to
 work anyhow.

 Yeah, I found that one in `wp-includes/functions.php`. Haha.

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 /**
          * Filters the "real" file type of the given file.
          *
          * @since 3.0.0
          *
          * @param array  $wp_check_filetype_and_ext File data array
 containing 'ext', 'type', and
          *                                          'proper_filename'
 keys.
          * @param string $file                      Full path to the file.
          * @param string $filename                  The name of the file
 (may differ from $file due to
          *                                          $file being in a tmp
 directory).
          * @param array  $mimes                     Key is the file
 extension with value as the mime type.
          */
 }}}

 This filter triggers after the main upload file checking, so with that in
 mind just be sure you are only overriding the yay/nay for font files. (It
 is easy to accidentally allow everything or deny everything... oops.)
