Nothing. It is a feature that have to be implemented by the engine
(should be easy with some Lua hackery, not so much in XeTeX).
\addfontfeatures right now simply defines a new LaTeX font based on the
active one, and appends the new feature, which is neither efficient nor
robust (and works only with fontspec loaded fonts).
