Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] Review request on `blocking=render` attribute for scripts and stylesheets (Issue #727)

Thanks for the review!

> However, we still have concerns about adding additional blocking to stylesheets, particularly for the purpose of blocking on font loading

Adding this to stylesheets will not block page rendering on web font loading. It will only block on [critical subresources](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/infrastructure.html#critical-subresources), which is currently underdefined, but so far no implementation includes web fonts as critical subresources.

We are indeed pursuing [CSS-based approaches](https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/7271) to for rendering control with web fonts, which however should be orthogonal to this `blocking=render` feature.
