Alex, What is important is what the end user sees. It sounds like the
FF user will only see normal and bold so that's what FF should expose.
This brings up a second question though. How valuable is it for an end
user to hear numbers from 100 through 900? Should we say that 500 and
below is normal and 600 and above is bold? Or should we leave that to
the AT?
