Actually the OFL doesn't define embedding. It says:

  5) The Font Software, modified or unmodified, in part or in whole,
  must be distributed entirely under this license, and must not be
  distributed under any other license. The requirement for fonts to
  remain under this license does not apply to any document created
  using the Font Software.

What changes do you see in 2 years? I don't see any.
