I think this is a great implementation. Embedding PNGs in to a font feels wrong - surely that doesn't scale up to large font sizes well? Or causes a blurry/pixellated downscaled image? Mixing bitmap with vector seems an odd engineering decision. Microsoft's approach is elegant in maintaining backwards compatibility and also enabling colored vector images on top. The only downside seems to be a limited color palette, but I don't think that outweighs the benefits, and also encourages a clear and simple design.
