we're going to built that kind of logic (and a bit more) into luatex / context mkiv ; after that we can see to what extend we can support the xetex way as well
after tug 2006 we enter the font part pf the luatex/orientaltex project
OK. Sounds great. If you need a tester, I'll be more than happy to provide lots of awkward cases and sift through them. In the meantime, is it possible to enable/disable ConTeXt's UTF-8 handler selectively for pieces of text? such as: \starttext \enableregime[utf] - some Unicode text processed by CoNTeXt for diacritics etc. - \disableregime[utf] - some Unicode text in some other script processed natively by XeTeX - \stoptext That would do the job in the meantime.
