hmm, the current structure is of the form of testing for each feature and 
doing a applicable action if the flag is set. So it also is extensible for 
future flags and checking for the absence of an attribute while the rest of 
the conditionals check for the presence also might make the code harder to 
read.

So for me the current variant somehow looks more intuitive.

But I'll just let the majority decide ;-)
