I'm confused about what font formats are on the menu. Does this mean the
formats are:
1) OpenType
2) WOFF
3) SVG
4) EOTLite (CWT)

And implementors can pick two out of those four? (Listing SVG as one of the
*choices* is what's giving me pause, here.)
And, I am assuming that "OpenType" is being used a general term covering the
different flavors - with TrueType and CFF not being distinguished and
therefore, in effect, sub-choices at the discretion of the implementor?
