Now Palatino font doesn't need to be patched on client side which simplifies the font setup significantly. I've updated that Wiki page accordingly. Feel free to correct me.

In this case \smallcaps option behaves differently than for e.g. \it or \bf styles. I am quite confused. Moreover, when faked caps are switched on using \sc, it works.

I've changed fonts.otf.enhancers.patches[^pala] to fonts.handlers.otf.enhancers.patches[^pala] which compiles, but it does nothing.
