Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-fonts] limit local fonts to those selected by users in browser settings (or other browser chrome) (#4497)

In reference to the meeting log: Clearly, a spec could at most describe qualitatively what kind of installation provenance a font should have to be visible to the Web and possibly provide lists for some well-known systems (but linking to Microsoft's and Apple's own docs seems easier). The allow-list necessarily needs to be a per-OS thing, and the W3C can't say that this is the closed list of operating systems that will ever exist. Also, this whole concept won't make sense for such Linux distros that don't have a broad installed-by-default font set.
