I did not design that function, that's how it works.  But given how 
intricate the face machinery is, I'm not sure it's possible to do much

You may have seen in the attached patch that :family is indeed handled 
before all other attributes, but not :font.

Can you please confirm that the recipes you sent are working as expected 
when you place the :font attribute before all other attributes?
