Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-fonts-4] font-display: optional without relayout (#4108)

I agree that we need this mode. Unfortunately, today use of a *local, pre-cached* web font incurs a two renders to draw most of the time, because the there is no way to make the font block the rendering entirely for a limited time.

Browsers can add heuristics to anticipate this, but there is probably an inherent tradeoff about whether the font blocks all of rendering that, for high-performance sites, the site author should be allowed to make.
