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

That's an important use-case, but I think it's tangential, and a much bigger problem that should probably be spun off into its own issue. Seems like you want to synchronise the loading of all faces of a particular font family. Feels like you'd need to apply this behaviour to a particular element, and you'd need to have the whole element to know what needed to synchronise, so it'd affecting streaming rendering.
