Does that work? I guess I should know...otherwise, you might want to
look at "SmallCapsFeatures".

LaTeX already provides \textsuperscript, and \textsubscript if you
load the fixltx2e package. If you also also load the xltxtra package,
you probably want to use \textsuperscript*{...} instead if there are
sups characters in the font you're using but not many.

I wonder if I should reverse that decision...there seem to be a lot of
fonts around that only have a couple of subs/sups characters...

Cheers,
Will
