Dear Philipp,
As you can see, the kern feature does not have an apparent effect in node mode, whereas base mode resembles the output of Xetex.
Here
\testme {node_palt_nokern}
and
\testme {node_palt_kern}
have different widths.
The version is
mtx-context | current version: 2014.12.06 14:20
Am I misunderstanding something?
Best,
Akira
