what happened with the option to set font features with more

you mentioned in

It would be nice to write \definefontfeature[mine][smallcaps=yes]
instead
of \definefontfeature[mine][smcp=yes] where you have to know the four
letter
code for the feature.
as mapping is already kin dof present, if you add
for k, v in pairs(to_features) do
to_features[gsub(k," ","")] = v
k = lower(k)
to_features[k] = v
to_features[gsub(k," ","")] = v
end
to font-ott.lua then you can say:
\starttext
We should restrict this to one alternative (besides smcp=yes) and
the last variant seems to me like the context way (lowercase keys
without spaces in it).
% \definefontfeature[smallcaps][smcp=yes,script=latn]
% \definefontfeature[smallcaps][SmallCapitals=yes,script=latn]
% \definefontfeature[smallcaps][Small Capitals=yes,script=latn]
% \definefontfeature[smallcaps][small capitals=yes,script=latn]
\definefontfeature[smallcaps][smallcapitals=yes,script=latn]
\definedfont[cambria*smallcaps] test
\stoptext
of course you need to memorize the huge feature name table
Why, you can make a table where there normal feature name (Uppercase
with spaces)
is listed together with the normalized form (lowercase, no spaces) and
the four
letter form.
well, your asked for smallcaps and got smallcapitals and remembering the
(sometimes long verbose names is no fun either)
we might even want to strip everything except a-z0-9
