Dear All,
I've finished a rough comparision of various engines for their typographical
quality:

From my point of view the ConTeXt is the best offering in this field to
date, so congratulation!
If you find something inappropriate or misleading in my text, please comment
or let me know.
If my ConTeXt examples could be written more efficiently, I am open to fix
it.
Font expansion only, applied to a limited character subset
Is that true? It is applied to any character that you want, of course
given that you associate expansion factors, but that happens for quite
some characters in context.
Concerning homogenization, context has support for dynamically aplying
feature (alternates) to improve the look and feel but of course not many
fonts have multiple variants for glyphs grouped in stylistic alternates
so this mechanism is hardly used (only for some arabic).
