I don't have an integrated system of my own, but matching bbox to bbox gives poor results. I've always felt that x-height to x-height will give the best results for mixing scripts. After all, the author may well have taken the trouble to ensure that the characters he has principally been working are adequately matched by the obligatory ASCII (indeed, possibly even Latin-1) glyphs. LibreOffice changed its default size matching rules and thereby improved matching between different scripts in the same line, but I don't know what rules it actually adopted.
