An experimental version of Firefox with WebOTF (and EOTL) support is now available for anyone who'd like to try it: https://build.mozilla.org/tryserver-builds/jkew@mozilla.com-try-da9d35a4f534/ There are Mac, Windows and Linux versions. The page at http://www.jfkew.plus.com/webotf/webotf-test.html uses WebOTF-format fonts, and the .zip archive available there includes code for a WebOTF packaging tool.
