Well do it. You know so much about the right way to setup font
families that it should be a piece of cake for you to provide some
generic code to use roboto, the brush font and say newtx through one
package. 

But please don't forget that LaTeX user expect commands like \large
\bfseries \scshape \itshape to work without some manual setup in the
document.
