描述

SIL licensed Lato font is embedded in iced_wgpu, so the crate is licensed under MIT AND OFL. It prevents GPL licensed applications from using iced, since GPL and SIL are incompatible when the font is embedded in the application binary. If the font was offloaded to a dedicated crate and the font embedding was optional feature in iced_wgpu, the problem would be resolved.

研究方向
Identify the SIL licensed Lato font files within the iced wgpu crate. Create a new dedicated crate (e.g., iced lato) and move the font files there, exposing them as a feature gated dependency in iced wgpu. Update all references and ensure the licensing is explicitly separated. Check existing comments for any maintainer preferences on crate naming and feature flag design. No PRs exist yet, so this is available for implementation.
