How to use dynamic features? it is not documented in co-typography and co-fonts.
is there such interface like:

\definefeature[onum][onum=yes]
\definefeature[smcp][smcp=yes]
{\rm\bf\onum\smcp Hello 2008!}

not n!, but 2^n.

last question: is it possible to add fontconfig-like interface? if I
define to use minion famaily, then all the alternatives are
automatically defined like xetex?
