Resurrecting this thread to point out a small inconsistency with the
API.  The docs say that accessing feature flags from templates is done
thusly:

    <div tal:condition="features/name">

But some templates don't seem to have the features variable and instead
you have to use the request:

    <div tal:condition="request/features/name">

Since the request is always available and the above is only slightly
longer, how about we remove the shortcut version to both simplify the
default namespace and unify the access method?

If we agree to do so, I'll make the small changes required.
