Comment (by hellofromTonya):

 Update:

 Yesterday, I shared an
 [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/41479#issuecomment-1597915077
 update in the Fonts API ongoing roadmap].

 tl;dr
 Big changes are coming to the Fonts API with a
 [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/45271 new font management
 system] that includes a [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/50927
 new Font Library] for users to manage their fonts.

 The Font Library is part of #58579 and is currently planned for 6.3. If
 the 6.3 Release Squad approves converting #58579 into a blessed task, then
 this ticket also needs to be converted into a blessed task to support the
 Font Library and font management features and workflow.

 Assessments are underway to determine:
 * Changes needed in the Fonts API.
 * If what's in Core now could support the Font Library.

 Once the assessments are done, I'll share them in both the
 [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/41479 Ongoing Roadmap] and
 here in this Trac ticket.
