I have noticed that ConTeXt (beta from 2014.02.14 17:07) has a problem
with Palatino Linotype.
Here the sample:
\definefontfeature[capstosc][c2sc=yes]
\definefontfamily[mainface][serif][Palatino Linotype]
\setupbodyfont[mainface]
\starttext
{\addfeature[capstosc] AEIOU}
\sc aeiou
\stoptext
All vowels are fine, but the i is a dotted small cap i. The regular
small cap i is defined as i.sc (and the dotted small cap i is defined
as i.sc too). But FontForge applies both c2sc and smcp substitutions
fine.
It seems to be a regression as this example now produces a dot as well:

(in ConTeXt 2013.12.20 it was Ok)
