I was trying to figure out how to use Graphite font features in XeLaTeX
with fontspec. I read the most recent fontspec manual on CTAN and it
says that AAT and Graphite features are not yet supported. Is there any
hope of this changing? It would be great to be able to use Graphite
features since not all fonts use OpenType.

I hope this is not too far off topic.

What do you mean by not supported? The newest fontspec documentation
only says that the command `\IfFontFeatureActiveTF` is not supported
for these fonts but beside this what doesn't work for you?

I don't know how to access the Graphite user selectable features. What is
the syntax?
