\os is kind of special because it's related to the fact that good old 
tex and the cm fonts have oldstyles in some math font and therefore some 
  effort is needed to use it in text

we might consider mapping \os to something

\def\os{\groupedcommand{\setfontfeature{oldstyle}}{}}

which in mkiv will make

1234567890 {\os 1234567890} 1234567890

work
