It's not a good idea, however you slice it, for text on the page to not render while a multimegabyte font file downloads on the first page view. As far as I know, this is exactly what happens in Safari right now. If that's correct (I haven't tested), little squares for some users on some pages are far preferable. Even if an interim font does render while the web font downloads, it's still not a good use of our viewers' bandwidth.
