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

> Next step: work on an API for full access to all installed fonts as a list!

I would formally object to such an API. It explicitly undoes all the font-based privacy mitigations we've done. Users don't want to see more dialog boxes, and trying to explain the privacy implications of using fonts to a user is difficult. If a website wants to use fancy fonts, it can serve them as web fonts.
