litherum has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts: == [css-text] [css-fonts] Variation selectors are underspecified == Variation selectors require some extra processing to get them right. There are two reasons for this: The 'cmap' format 14 subtable allows character mapping to accept variation selectors as input, and variation selectors are required for emoji selection but optional for other purposes. This has implications for the `unicode-range` descriptor in @font-face, the font matching algorithm, and a possible property being discussed at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/352. It seems to me that it's valuable for browsers to have interoperability regarding variation selectors. Before making a specific proposal, I'd love to hear from the browser vendors about their current (or planned) support of variation selectors. cc @heycam @drott @PeterCon Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/854 using your GitHub account
