inadvertently changed another parameter (proportional numbers). (And of
course, microtype gives you a warning and doesn't work). Sorry for
getting some hopes up... <br>

\usepackage{microtype}<br>
\setmainfont{Garamond Premier Pro:+opbd}<br>
<br>
the result (linebreaks, hyphenated words) looks quite different from a "straight" version without the package and the opbd.<br>

Different, perhaps. Correct? I very much doubt it.<br>
<br>
Does Garamond Premier Pro include an 'opbd' feature? The version I have doesn't support this. But even if it did, the result would still be wrong, because this feature shouldn't be applied to all the text but only at the line edges. Moreover, it requires a specialized engine that knows that it means to apply the 'lfbd' or 'rtbd' feature depending on position. There's no way this can have worked in XeTeX in the way the Adobe feature specification says, as the code hasn't been written.<br>
<br>
As for the microtype package, didn't it give you a warning to say that it only works with pdftex?<br>
<br>
Perhaps you were really just comparing Garamond with Computer Modern, perhaps?<br><font color="#888888">
