Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-fonts] incorporate mitigations for font based fingerprinting (#4055)

There is not consensus that passive fingerprinting is solvable to the point that there won't still be large numbers of unique users; I've seen a number of chrome implementors and tech leads take that position in discussions on fingerprinting, including in this working group and elsewhere.  I'm not convinced either way as to whether it's solvable because I haven't seen anybody put together the data (an up-to-date list of fingerprinting vectors, with data on them and proposed mitigations) that would let me make that judgment.
