If there are fonts in /etc/fonts it should be labeled fonts_t : if they are not fonts though lots of domains can write to fonts_t
These are configuration files for fontconfig-based fonts (used by GNOME/KDE, xetex, ...). Virtual fonts like "mono" or "serif" are described here, etc. It probably makes sense that everybody who can legally write /usr/share/fonts should also be able to write to /etc/fonts.
