The new PDF rendering pipeline does indeed use XeLaTeX.  I haven't
used it to typeset non-latin scripts since a summer I spent at SIL in
1996 (and that might have been Omega, not XeLaTeX), so if you wanted
to pitch in and help out I'd greatly appreciate it.  To start with,
short example LaTeX articles typeset in your script would probably
help me ensure I've got all the prologue bits and packages right.
