I think DevTools may want to display a panel which lists all available
variation axis supported by the font, and allow developers to adjust
them. I think there is some discussion about adding this kind of
detection to Font Loading API. Before that API gets stable I guess we
can implement an internal thing listing that for DevTools and as an
experiment for the future standard API.
