In terms of the basic XeTeX \font command, something like this works
fine:
\font\txt="Hoefler Text" at 12pt
\font\fn="Hoefler Text:Vertical Position=Superiors" at 12pt
\txt
This is a test{\fn a} for the footnote{\fn b} markers.

However, I don't know anything about the whole LaTeX font selection
scheme, so I'm not the person to determine how to tie AAT features in
with all that.
