I hadn't seen Pathfinder before; very cool! Especially if it's easily transferable to gpuweb, if and when that ships.
Reminds me of Mark Kilgard's old NV_path_rendering extension, which (as so often happened for interesting NV stuff) never made the jump to portability. One of its touted benefits as an in-driver implementation was the ability to share things like glyph caches between multiple apps with separate GL contexts, but with "apps" increasingly becoming "browser tabs", maybe a browser-managed cross-tab cache is almost as good.
BTW, is the WebGL demo available online anywhere, for people who don't want to install npm?
