I rely on fake-bold, as not all fonts include a bold variant. In
Photoshop I can add a stroke to simulate bold weight, but in XeTeX I
need to rely on "embolden=<real>".

To the best of my knowledge I have never had occasion to use text
clipping with XeTeX, but this does not mean that I might not want to use
it in the future. If I can use only one of faux-bold and text clipping
at a time, that is probably sufficient.
