Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-fonts] @font-face source: reference to OpenType Collection without a fragment identifier (#10127)

That seems the simplest and easiest option. But the spec should not that this is fragile: the font might get updates such that the "first" font changes.

IIRC that was feedback (when [RFC8081](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8081.html)was being developed) from font vendors, in particular Adobe, who gave examples of updates to in-the-wild collections which had changed the index numbers.
