I don't think this is a likely use case. A likely use case might be a textual licence with small caps and some links, e.g. an XHTML fragment. No, it should not be entity-encoded, that's insane. Once you do that you can't even check it for well-formedness without webfont-specific code, let alone process it. As for the earlier question, Japanese running text _already_ needs markup for "Ruby" (this is not the programming-language called Ruby), and it seems entirely likely to me that one might want Japanese fonts.
