Screenshot of the existing font panel

Testing with Epiphany 44.3 and WebKitGTK 2.40.3 on Fedora 38, I see the web inspector has a "Font" panel, which is pretty nice, except that it does not allow you to change any of the values there. The only widget in that screenshot that seems interactive (kind of) is the weight slider, but it actually ignores what you when you drag it, and it resets into place.

It would be pretty neat if one could modify any font properties for the selected item in the web page's DOM using the inspector; Chrome/Chromium doesn't have that feature (it doesn't even have a font inspector that I could find), but Firefox does.

I have asked someone to test with Safari on macOS and reportedly the font panel in its inspector has the same limitation as WebKitGTK on Linux.
