Description
I haven't dug into the potential differences yet but the new webfont loading is inconsistent - some seem to work fine and others don't, and even the same font might load on some and not others.

When reporting problems with the web browser, it's always useful to include the URLs used. Copying them out from screenshot isn't very fun :D (it's OK in this case, they are short enough)

I meant to do that and then forgot:
http://www.highteaphotography.com <-- "Lato" font works fine
http://www.decscroll.com <-- "Felipa" font works, "Alegreya" does not
http://www.webfont-test.com <-- no fonts seem to work
incidentally, fonts.google.com says Web+ is an incompatible browser. I assume this could be due to the Webkit version or something similar? They only list Chrome, Firefox, and Safari as compatible, but Opera works fine.

We were only accepting truetype, and at least alegreya comes as woff only. That is, in the user-agent dependent css provided to WebPositive. If you use curl's UA it is truetype. Thank you, google.
Incidentally, just changing the user-agent loads fonts.google.com, thank you, google. But you get js errors later. Maybe the js is also user-agent dependent and we have to guess another one, or maybe they really need something we don't have yet.
Didn't check what format the ones in webfont-test come, but I tested a pair of them and they now work.
