I would rather this not get committed until we have more time to discus this. 
If it is in fact a good idea to have this sanitizer, then I believe a copy
should live in the webkit tree (just as image decoders live in the tree).

That said, I am not sure it is good idea. What makes one parser (the sanitizer)
less prone to security bugs then the actual font parser?  Won't this increase
the attack surface for a certain class of bug?

Let's not push this through until there has been more discussion on this.
