My own policy is, unless a feature must be restricted to a specific
script/language (e.g. a locale-specific feature), all features should be
assigned to *all* scripts in the font, including DFLT/dflt, because
there is technical reason for doing otherwise and it would help
applications not doing automatic script/language itemisation (both
OpenType-enabled TeX engines, for example).
