it says this works in Safari - so, you can update WebKit to
Shipped/Shipping (I verified on my local machine).
As for Gecko, bit.ly/blink-signals explains how to request that
position from Mozilla.

Hi Eric,
in the context of enabling COLRv1 and the discussion on feature detection in CSS WG issue #6520 we need a) implementation changes to the src: descriptor and b) we need a @supports font-technology function, which was recently defined in the spec and which I am prototyping here.
In addition to your proposed change of supporting the keyword syntax, which is generally good, we also need to support the new syntax for the technology() function syntax in the font descriptor, which was recently introduced in the spec. I prefer to handle both at the same time, adding support for keyword syntax for format() as well as support for the new technology() function in the src: descriptor in the same intent to ship, which I plan to publish once I clarified whether we can go ahead and ship these new changes of the spec. I am somewhat hesitant to have a separate change only for the string -> keyword addition for format in the meantime.
Once I get to that, I will try to find a way for incorporating and landing your change for the keyword support as part of that work.
Dominik

Safari status has been updated and this is the Firefox position issue: https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/593
