This is part of the code that always makes me think we should clean it
up more thoroughly. Therefore I've added some remarks below.
As you've started working on this, perhaps you want to follow up?
If not, fine with me for now.

I see you sticked to the conventions ;-) but the variable naming
in this function could be improved.

Given that this function never increases the length of the feature
string, we might as well implement it without the allocating a new
string.
