      - Issue #4910 (Criteria for generic font families) was raised as a
          meta issue around the criteria a generic font family must meet
          but it lead to discussion and requests to have user created
          generic font families. There's interest in exploring user created
          generic font families so a separate issue will be raised.

                separate issue about how to introduce new generic fonts
                families syntactically
      <chris> I volunteer to raise the new issue on adding generics

User-created generic font families were discussed, but several problems with the idea were also raised. The plan going forward is to figure out how new UA-defined generics should be added to the syntax.
