allow vertical aligment for ordinal suffixes
Because 2ⁿᵈ is a common requirement and UTF solution is not a good way (discussion is on https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/65236/supperscript-in-ordinal-form-of-edition)
I have some of the same scepticism as others in that thread.
If we did support this, my first thought is it should be some kind of (maybe global) variable.

...and the variable would only say that these should be superscripted; nothing about formatting details beyond that.

I think this should just be a processor instruction to consider a behavior like citeproc-js: substitute regular characters with font formatting if the term uses superscrit or substrctip Unicode. Superscript Unicode characters exist for this sort of purpose; that fonts don't have modern character coverage isn't something we need to accomodate in CSL per se.
