Hi Will,
Yes, the patch works in my tests. Concerning changing of WordSpace locally:
i can do in a line with some other "change": consider
some context {\addfontfeature{LetterSpace={0},WordSpace={5}} way too
stretched} some context again.
Probably that's because invoking other feature uses another instance of the
same font, which can have different fontdimens -- but that's exactly what i
want.
Yours,
Vadim
