My concern is not to bury the otf•UI in a non obvious way.
I think part of the solution has to be to find a consensus on how to
indicate that the application at hand offers otf•UI at all.
Similar to the "bold", "italic" and "underline" that indicate simple
rich text editing.
Just providing means to successfully control otf features isn't enough.
