There are some points to consider, though. — Are glyphs with inherent color(s) affected by the ‘color’ property? — Does this change if the stylesheet says something non-default, e.g. using ‘font-variant-color’? — If I remember correctly, some color font formats use bitmap glyphs – should authors also be able to express a preference for vectors? — This isn’t (yet) covered by an Open Type feature, as far as I know, but most ‘font-variant’ sub-properties are designed to match such. Does a new property fit in with them?
