Hi Sylvain,
this is the same as:
\definefontfamily[face1][rm][gabriola]
Just in case, "slanted" is an already defined feature. It slants the font.

BTW, the documentation is clear
(http://texdoc.net/texmf-dist/doc/context/presentations/bachotex/2018/bachotex-2018-fonteffects.pdf#search=fontfeature):
font features should be defined as such before being deployed.

A ConTeXt (and not OpenType) font feature?

"effect={}" may be reading default values (it might be intended behavior
or not).
But it also could be reading or calculating from previously defined values.

This might be a bug, because of all the code improvements.
I’m reporting a proper bug.
