But user agents already identify the browser, right? I agree that implementing this first in Tor is probably not a good idea, but if Firefox were to do it first, then I don't see the problem. "They're a Firefox user" isn't nearly as specific information.

User agent gives the browser version and platform version. Two macs with the same OS version and the latest version of Chrome will have the same user agent.

  That's the point. With this feature, two computers with the latest version of Firefox would have the same font list.

    Is that true? I thought the point of using the font list for fingerprinting is that it can vary widely from user to user.
