Yuck. ;) Java has a boolean primitive and I think
that it's *more* clear to use it than switch to an
integer. Especially since the setFeature method
takes a boolean as a parameter.

The only problem with the boolean (little 'b') type
is that there is no way to return "don't care" or
"no value". However, using the Boolean (big 'b')
object allows this distinction.
