It would be good if we could answer this question soon, and hopefully in the positive. The (Web)font community has tried to get a font/ top level type repeatedly, with bad results. At least two attempts are documented. In http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-font/2009JulSep/1069.html, Chris Lilley describes his attempt around 1998 or so, which met active resistance ("we will strenuously oppose this and take up lots of your time if you persist"). The second attempt is documented at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webfonts-wg/2010Nov/0012.html which got a single, (from their point of view) rather scary reply. Unless we can tell them that we will look at a new proposal favorably, (at least) because either a new font/ or reusing application/ look okay, and if they think font/ is better, they should go with it, then I don't think they'll have the courage to try again. Regards, Martin.
