Aside from the chromium upstream bug
(https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=627143), I'm not
seeing any issue with the rendering of Ubuntu Light:

 - libreoffice renders text correctly when using the Ubuntu font and setting 
the character style to light
 - firefox and epiphany (web) render Iain's test page (comment #14) as expected

I have tested on disco (19.04) and eoan (19.10).

I have a limited understanding of how fonts work, but the chromium issue
doesn't appear to be caused by font metadata, rather by an incorrect
implementation of the W3C spec.

@Harry, are there other problems with the rendering of Ubuntu Light?
