Internally, the code directly adds the data in the expanded form by

you'll have to loop over all the characters yourself. Which I agree is
annoying, but even if Hans were to add a helper function for this, the
LaTeX team has stopped importing new font loader code, so you wouldn't
actually be able to use it.
I'm not sure what you mean with 'expanded' here but your last sentence
is a good reason for me to not waste time explaining what really happens
deep down and why en gets mentioned tables. Also, one can - as I posted
before - apply some positioning feature, so I don't see what use a mark
related extension one would add even if I would do that just because
it's easy. Maybe if someone asked on the context list I'd bother.
