@moyogo: the missing checkbox is exactly the reason why the optional features 
are not enabled by 
default. E.g. when XP_SP2 changed the default behaviour for ligatures in 
Palatino we could have done 
the same thing Notepad does: just use them.

Unfortunately there is a thing called "document backwards compatibility" that 
is a very important 
feature for a productivity suite. Some users just don't like it when the book 
they just wrote is formatted 
differently after they applied a OS service pack. Companies don't like it 
either when a form or a 
spreadsheet has line or page breaks that depend on subtle OS differences. 

I agree that advanced typography features should be enabled, BUT ONLY if the 
user allows it. The user 
interface to allow and select details of optional OpenType features needs to be 
defined => this is why 
the task is assigned to the UI team
