The stupid Microsoft WEFT tool is a piece of ****, and its .eot generated files also don't work with Firefox. Please implement at least TTF font downloading and embedding. If you'd like to respect font author wishes, you can make font downloading subject to the embeddable bits/attrs in the TTF font. Now that you render fonts with Pango, I don't see this as much of an issue. Reproducible: Always
