Maybe a document specfies a font that is resolvable as a system font, but it turns out to be the same thing as a font that we have in a bundle. In that case we should figure this out, use the bundle file, and suggest to the user that they specify the font in a way that results in it getting pulled from the bundle rather than having to go through the system file lookup. (In particular, you need to specify the font as a particular file name: texgyrepagella-regular.otf, not TeX Gyre Pagella.)

You can add the fonts in the bundle to FontConfig configuration using FcConfigAppFontAddFile or FcConfigAppFontAddDir, then asking for these font by font name (i.e. TeX Gyre Pagella) should work.

Specifying \set*font by filename would break bold/italics. Is it possible to look up font bundles by font name?

@auscompgeek It doesn't need to break bold/italics, if I'm understanding you properly ... see the recipe given here.
