Comment:

 Camilo has created an alternate version of font limiting that gives us a
 pref to restrict the font loading to the six generic fonts only
 (http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/fonts.html#generic-font-families).

 He's still working on the patch to ensure it does not block WebFonts, but
 I've attached an early draft.

 Supposedly the following websites look off:

 http://www.travelocity.com/ -> looks weird
 http://www.expedia.com/ -> lower part of the page misrendered
 http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/datatable/ -> function names are not
 rendered in monospace
 http://i-ville.net/fonts.html -> misrendered due to site braindamage
 http://gmoc-db.grnoc.iu.edu/

 Here are some multi-lingual sites that looked ok (covering arabic, thai,
 jewish, japanese,chinese,korean and hindi):
