You can insert any UTF-8 character and LilyPond will render it as
long as Pango can find a font installed on your system that includes
a glyph for that symbol.  Pango also handles kerning and ligatures
automatically, if the font(s) you use provide enough information and
glyphs (for example, Century Schoolbook shipped with LilyPond
include ligatures glyphs such as "fl", whereas Liberation fonts
don't, at least not "fl" I tested with "flûte"), [...]
      
Well, Till doesn't mean this.  He talks about OpenType features like
`smallcaps'.
    

I have no idea about this. You'd have to ask on the pango list, and
port their suggestions to pango-font.cc.



  
Yes I had already the impression that this is totally handled by pango. I thought of something like
when calling the font that you could add the openfont features, like +onum and the like.
