> I think we're looking at a registry of key writing styles, to which lists of fonts can be attached (either by the browser or the user, or both) in browser preferences. Remarks in a couple of recent conversations made me think that i should be a little more clear about what i had in mind here. [1] I envisaged a registry of generic font names, but not a registry that maps specific fonts to those names. (Although browsers may want to map a default font to the name.) [2] The mechanism for users to assign a font they have on their system that they prefer, to a given generic font name would be like or be an extension of that currently available to users of Gecko and Blink browsers for picking preferred fonts for a particular language. See the picture below of my settings on Firefox for Latin text.  -- GitHub Notification of comment by r12a Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/4910#issuecomment-621946188 using your GitHub account
