If the renderer and font have support, you could configure the ebook styles to use text figures if they are supported but again for a vast majority of the users out there a waste of time and effort. I've only seen font-variant-numbers styles used in one epub and I needed to test several fonts before finding one that it worked with since the embedded font did not.
Indeed.
