Support Opentype font features
Allow users to select Opentype features supported by a given typeface. This would be especially useful for anyone designing for ecommerce (tabular lining numerals), or text-heavy sites (small caps, proportional old style numerals), or rich typography in general (alternate stylistic sets, swashes, superscript, subscript, fractions). Common ligatures seem to be enabled already, but there's no way to access discretionary ligatures.

Adding to this list, I'd like small caps integrated. It's a shame it's not included — it's a basic CSS feature!

Integrating open type features.
The most useful to me would be everything having to do with figures (lnum, onum, pnum, tnum, frac, ordn), ligatures (at least the standard ligatures ) and stylistic sets (ss##). (For all those who create for example pictograms, circled numbers etc. in different stylistic versions directly in a font editor.)
