Support OpenType features such as stylistic alternates and number form options in labeling

In most other design software, there is a way to select which stylistic set or ligature settings you'd like used for OpenType fonts. In ArcGIS Pro, these options are much more limited. I'm needing to use Corbel in a map to match the document that it's going in, but Corbel uses lowercase/old style numbering by default. These look terrible on point symbols. Adobe and Microsoft Office applications, for example, support the alternate lining set, but I'm finding no such option in Pro.

There is reference to OpenType features here, but there doesn't seem to be support for it in labeling unless there's an Arcade tag I don't know about.

Agree these would be useful, but they have fallen low on our priority list. I'm interested in hearing from others who would like these features.
