[Feature Request] Please allow pages to choose specific fonts when using a custom font

[Ikeli]

Through its "Fonts" dialog, Firefox allows users to select the fonts to be used by pages, and then there is the option to "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of your selections above". If such option is not selected, then pages can't choose any font of their own, and this behavior breaks the rendition of pages that use fonts like Font Awesome for graphical effects, not text. Therefore, when "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of your selections above" is not selected, Firefox should let users specify exceptions for some fonts (Font Awesome could be an initial default item).

Thank you.

Seconding this:

It's very frustrating to be forced to choose between having graphics on web pages (like this very one; 'Insert Photos' is a blank space with my font choice) work and having the page readable without strain. I don't use documents' font choices, since i'm dyslexic; and have a easier time reading a specific font.

And pursuant to that, it would also make sense to add the "accessibility" tag to this idea.

Though this idea is about allowing specific font choices, even just allowing the display of any document fonts only on specific pages (presumably much simpler to implement) could remediate some of the issue; as lots of websites do use FontAwesome have a 'use system font' option, fixing the readability issue on only those sites, making ignoring the document font redundant in those cases.
