Couldn't the ULS team also use JavaScript to query client systems for their
font lists before searching through them to see if any of the fonts installed
on such client systems include the characters necessary to display text
correctly in articles that require additional fonts to load properly?  Such
programmatic logic could then be used to determine if the ULS needs to load any
additional web fonts to finish displaying an article.
