Re: [csswg-drafts] [meta][css-fonts-4] Index of local font issues: fingerprinting, I18n, privacy (#11775)

In recent conversations, I've identified an additional existing use case for local fonts that I wanted to bring to the group's attention.

A document editing application has both platform-native and web-based implementations. User A begins work on a document in the platform-native application. They apply formatting using fonts installed on their device. They save the document to cloud-based storage and close the application.

Later, User A resumes work on the same document, on the same device, using the web-based application. They should see the same use of fonts they previously applied in the platform-native application. They make further changes to font styling and save the document again.

User A shares the document with User B, who opens the document in the web-based application. To the extent User B has the same fonts installed on their device, they should see the use of fonts applied by User A in either the platform-native or web-based application.
