That means all text that uses the font will use that stylistic-set.
Is that good enough? What if you want to have the same font with and
without a specific stylistic-set in the same document?.
And if the font is not the default face's font, it means you need to
setup a special face for using it anyway.
So I think a font attribute is not flexible enough for Emacs. But I'm
interested in what others think.
