I take it that the this would completely replace TTF/OTF as EOTL would.
To be clear, whatever additional formats we support in Gecko in the future, I don't think any of us Gecko developers would consider dropping support for bare TTF/OTF. (I don't think we've ever intimated we would, but perhaps people misunderstood.)
