What, no comments? This post has been up for hours!
The whole way through the article I had this idea that I wanted to share in the comments, and then you chucked it in there at the very end. Very “one more thing”- esque :-)
Regarding the FOUC vs. nothing-then-show dilemma, I think the option that involves the most work will be worth a try. Sticking to displaying the text while we’re waiting for the font(s) to download, and styling it so there’s no reflow of text etc. And possibly even do a fade transition from one font to the other.

Any other pros or cons?
