What should happen when assigning to the family, style, etc. attributes 
of a FontFace object?  Should it be something like the FontFace 
constructor, i.e.:

   1. Set the status to "unloaded".  Run the remaining steps
      asynchronously.
   2. Parse the string as you would the corresponding @font-face
      descriptor.  If it fails to parse, reject the status promise.
      Otherwise, queue a task to set the attribute to the serialization
      of the parsed value.
   3. ...

What about when the FontFace object is connected to an @font-face rule? 
  When do you effectively set the descriptor on the rule?
