Summary

We were accidentally missing the [Exposed=Window] on the 
CSSFontFeaturesValueRule interface, so window.CSSFontFeaturesValueRule is 
incorrectly undefined even though the API was otherwise exposed. This interface 
has no constructor and it's unlikely that any website would be looking for it 
specifically, but it's technically potentially helpful for feature detection.

Risks




Interoperability and Compatibility

No behavior change other than 'CSSFontFeatureValuesRule in window'. Like all 
new APIs exposed on 'window' there is a little risk that a poorly written 
website could be impacted, eg. if a website was relying on legacy features like 
window.CSSFontFeatureValuesRule mapping to an <iframe 
name=CSSFontFeatureValuesRule>. However in this case I judge the risk to be 
virtually non-existent because: 1) This is a long, specific and obscure name - 
extremely unlikely to be used accidentally by a website (as window.Report was). 
2) Firefox and Safari have already shipped this API without issue 3) I searched 
all of GitHub for 'CSSFontFeatureValuesRule' and didn't get a single hit - very 
unusual.

Anticipated spec changes

Open questions about a feature may be a source of future web compat or interop 
issues. Please list open issues (eg links to known github issues in the project 
for the feature specification) whose resolution may introduce web 
compat/interop risk (eg, changing to naming or structure of the API in a 
non-backward-compatible way).
None
