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

ISTM you can solve that easily enough by defining a couple of "adjusted font families" to use as fallbacks for your webfont; one to use on body elements and another for headings.

(As an aside, I'm not really convinced it's worthwhile to try and refine this stuff to such a degree. Fallbacks are just that: fallbacks. They may or may not even be available on a given user's system; you might end up with some other default/generic anyway. They aren't expected to render identically to the target webfont, no matter how many knobs we provide to tweak them. After all, if they *did* provide a perfect substitute, why use the webfont at all? So while I can see a case for some controls here, I think we should avoid getting too carried away...)
