Steps to reproduce:
Try specifying a default cursive/kai/fangsong/... font and unchecking "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of your selections above"
Actual results:
Unable to specify a default cursive/kai/fangsong/... font in settings.
Expected results:
The generic fonts in <generic-complete> in the https://developer.mozilla.org/zh-CN/docs/Web/CSS/font-family page can be specified for any language, and the generic fonts in <generic-script-specific> can be specified for a specific language.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Layout: Text and Fonts' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

It's possible to configure fonts for cursive in about:config (see the font.name.cursive.* and font.name-list.cursive.* prefs), though this is not exposed in the Preferences UI.
The newer generics such as kai and fangsong defined in CSS Fonts 4 are not yet implemented; see bug 1868500.
