I'm trying to package a web application with bundled fonts. These fonts

Trying to package the webfonts as dependencies I have run into problem
together with my reviewer. Basically, we don't know what to do. Some
questions:
- Where should webfonts be stored? A specific dir would be good, since
some fonts exists in both a webfont and desktop variant with the same
filenames.
- How shoulld webapps get access to the system webfont? Is the apache
config file approach used for ..js files, where the webapp gets access
to specific system paths, usable also here?
- Given that the primary concern about fonts seems to be licensing, is
it really meaningful to unbundle them?
This is the short story. The somewhat longer:

Any help, out there?
I had the same answer few months ago and got this answer:

Thanks! I knew I had seen this message somewhere, but lost it...
The reply makes me feel a little more confused, on a higher level. How
does that reply translate to the packaging of a web application with
some bundled webfonts ? "scratching my head".
Note that in my case the "fonts" are just just images and icons, which
makes the normal font fallback mechanisms useless. They are needed, period.
