The problem is that many sites are relying on the non-quoting behavior.
Should is a good way to solve the problem, because we leave a place
for a browser auto-recovery system, that already exists today in every
browser that support font-family.
But I agree it should have been necessary to use quotes since the begin.
What about a sentence like :
Font family names SHOULD be quoted, but User-Agents MAY support
unquoted names. To avoid problems, it's strongly recommended to quote
font names containing more than one word.
?
