Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-fonts] Specifying changes to parameters for fallback fonts (#126)

The corrections definitely have to be applicable to a specific font and set of fallbacks, rather than a whole font family; that's the only way for it to apply in an appropriate way. Every font might have different corrections (bold versus italic versus a condensed width).

As for @tabatkins 's that the adjustments are common to all usage of a font across the page, I'll just say again that in the way I've used an inactive class to style fallback fonts, it has varied by selectors. I might use a `bold` font weight for bold text in a paragraph (where it might have corrections that inherit from the `p` tag) and also use the `bold` font for headings that might need different `letter-spacing` values. So in how I use it, it is something I do quite regularly (vary by selector, not universally for a font).
