FVWM: Fvwm, Xft and font aliases

In my .fvwm2rc I have switched to using xft fonts.
So I have used an alias like this:

"xft:Sans:Medium:Roman:size=10:encoding=iso10646-1"

When looking in gunchar and choosing "Sans" I can see quite a lot of
characters, and the "real" fonts they come from.
But in Fvwm it seems only 1 font is really used.
Isn't font aliases handled by Xft? I thought the "Sans" would refer to a
specific style, and Xft would choose best fit fonts for each character.

Have I missed something, or is there a mistake in my configuration?
