Is there any reason I shouldn't just dump feathers from chickens
I've plucked on the compost heap? There must be something I can
do with them other than making a very unpleasant-smelling bonfire.

How about keeping them, sterilising them and stuffing pillows or
cushions?

They're a good slow-release source of nitrogen. I'd dig them in, as
they're too slow for the rest of the compost.
