--- Comment #8 from Tobias Hemm <tobiasenthe...@mailbox.org> ---
I think I understood you now, Heiko. Is the following what you meant?

I guess, when you say "open font", you mean "OpenType".
It’s partly hard for me to understand you, Heiko. Can you make yourself a
little clearer, please?

If you mean the feature "Hidden" from the tab "Font Effects": I don’t care what
happens to it. I can’t imagine what one would need it for. And it’s definitely
not needed in the OpenType tab. So I think there will be no "two sets", if
that’s what you mean, because – as I said – the feature "Small capitals" under
"Font Effects" is a fake feature anyway. You can keep it implemented, but I,
personally, wouldn’t use it at all. Typographers don’t use it, because it looks
ugly. And the feature "All Capitals" can be in either tab. It doesn’t matter,
where.

Does that clarify for you, what I mean?

I wouldn’t do that. At first, this idea sounds practical. But I would clearly
segregate these two features and call the feature "Small capitals" in "Font
Effects" something like "False Small Caps" or "Scaled Small Caps", because
that’s what LibreOffice does – scale the Capitals down.
