Hello,

Protrusion and expansion seem to be not working anymore when using the
simplefonts module in the latest betas. I used to write something like

     \usemodule[simplefonts][protrusion=quality,expansion=quality]
     \setupalign[hanging,hz]
     \setmainfont[Tex Gyre Bonum]

but that doesn't give me any of the nice effects anymore. Has
something changed in the interface to access those features?

BTW, I would definitely love an option in simplefonts to take care of
this whole setup at once. Something like
     \setupmodule[simplefonts][microtypography=yes]

please keep the original key names (protrusion and expansion) as it's already complex enough .. nowhere we use the term microtypography and it is a rather meaningless term as there is much micro going on

to take care of the first two lines of the previous example. Or at
least imply \setupalign[hanging] when setting the protrusion parameter
and similarly for the expansion parameter.

in many case you don't want to use them both at the same time
