Urm, no.

Otherwise things like "Hue" and "Whiteness" would be there too (!)

Could be because not every hardware video device _has_ these controls.
the /dev/videoX is the link to the stream.
Features are a dev_sub thing on the /dev/videoX
My videocard has some Features that not all cards have too

if webcam.Features then
	webcam.Features.Bright=1
else
	print "No Features!! (bright/contrast/saturation etc.)"
endif

I had pain in brain reading the v4l2 C-code stuff :)
