Hello Jean,
yes, did not think about that. Doing is your way is better anyway ...
Regarding the \with-font-feature-Part: I think I had some discussion on the
list wrt this a long time ago. Would you think it would make sense to provide
this (or a similar function) to Lilypond? Usually people actually using
Opentype features use this in a sort of toggle-like manner, so I think this
would be useful.
Cheers,
Valentin
