           Summary: [iOS 13] App-registered system wide fonts unavailable
                    to WKWebView/Safari
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Safari Technology Preview
          Hardware: iPhone / iPad
                OS: iOS 12

Overview:
---------
A font registered for system use using iOS 13 CTFontManagerRegisterFonts* API can't be used in WKWebView.

Steps to reproduce:
-------------------
App A is a font provider, app B is a font consumer using a WKWebView.

1. In App A: add Fonts/Install Fonts privilege.

2. In App A: Register a custom font for system use using new CTFontManagerRegisterFontsWithAssetNames() API. For example, font 'Montez-Regular' from Google Fonts.

3. Run App A and register the font. Verify it appears on decvice in Settings.app->General->Fonts.

3. In app B: add Fonts/Use Installed Fonts privilege.

4. Display UIFontPickerViewController. Verify Montez font appears corectly and selects correct UIFontDescriptor with postscriptName 'Montez-Regular'.

5. Verify font can be applied to a UILabel.

6. Try to apply font in in html, e.g.:
 `<body style="font-family: Montez-Regular;">hi</body>`
And load in a WKWebView as local file.

Actual Results:
---------------
Text is displayed using system default font.
In addition, attaching to Safari's web debugger shows the font doesn't appear in the list of available fonts in CSS properties editor.

Expected Results:
-----------------
Text will be displayed using custom font.

Build Date & Hardware:
----------------------
iOS 13.0 beta 5 (17A5556d) on iPad, iPhone (or simulator)

Additional Information:
-----------------------
Same behavior on Mobile Safari.
