Based on discussions with the Fonts WG, in the latest editor's draft of the CSS3 Fonts spec I've moved the description of the same-origin restriction from an appendix into the section where the @font-font rule is defined: http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-fonts/#same-origin-restriction This was done to reflect the rough consensus that allowing for some form of origin restriction for fonts with the ability to relax it was desirable. There's been disagreement about the exact way to relax the restriction, whether to use CORS which both Firefox and IE9 use, or to come up with a more general mechanism for all linked resource types (Anne's From-Origin proposal), so there's wording noting that the exact mechanism used may change.
