Variation fonts support requires platform support. It doesn't seem to make any sense to me to turn on the feature in WebKit but not hook it up to the EFL/GTK platforms (which I don't know how to do). Of course, each port an make the decision of turning this feature on or not.

The timeouts are particularly worrisome. Do you know why they are happening?
