SUMMARY
-------
My `kcm_fonts` font preferences are not applied to Web Browser's embedded
Chromium instance.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
------------------
1. Add the Web Browser plasmoid to the `plasmashell` desktop.
2. Render any HTML file (at any URI) that doesn't explicitly define a font.

My `kcm_fonts` font preferences are not applied to the embedded Chromium
instance.
EXPECTED RESULT
---------------
They should be.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
----------------------
I have filed a similar ticket for the *icons* upstream — at
https://issues.chromium.org/issues/378121132#comment1. I didn't consider that
to be worth reporting here.
This ticket differs to that, because the font fallbacks are an unfortunate
consequence of backward compatibility which Google has no desire to remediate.
