I presume that you are implying there are SVG implementations with
interoperable @font-face support.

I tried doing some research on this, but could find no implementations
that claimed to support @font-face, and could find no test cases for it.
Could you help me determine which UAs support that and point me to the
tests that you are using to establish this?
