Sorry I was going to reply earlier but Firefox Sync and WebRTC kept
interrupting me.

In all seriousness, support for webfonts itself is feature-creep; at least
defensibly so.  I would put this squarely in the category of building the
right UI for the feature you've already decided to support (@font-face).
It wouldn't hurt things to group webfonts with the image, sound, and video
elements in the "Media" tab either; my real concern is just that they
aren't exposed at all, not that they don't have a tab all of their own.
