Cool!
I would just avoid using the term "palette" because I recently learned that the term "font-palette" is used in the CSS spec for something else (relating to color palettes in coloured font faces).
As can be seen here: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-fonts-4/#font-palette-prop

There may be occasions when the user may want to modify the design-space coordinates of a given variable font globally on the document. Do you think this is a valid concern / valid usage scenario ?
I think you should postpone this for now and consider it a future possible milestone.
In that case, a variable font instance may behave like a shared resource, analogous to a shared gradient or filter-effect. But then we would need to make this an explicit user-choice, perhaps by providing a dedicated dialog for setting up such shared font resources. Like a "palette of font instances". Does it make sense ?
Yes, more sophisticated typesetting environments have "character styles" and "paragraph styles" which are such palettes and afaik inkscape doesn't have a UI for that.
