In the case of romanized Singhala, any processing that English accepts, it accepts too. For RS, you select a font to display it in the native script because if it is mixed with English, both are using the same character space, just as when English and French are mixed.
But English and French actually *use* the same letters, or at any rate most of them. With your approach, it is not possible to write Sinhala in the Sinhala script mixed with English or French or anything else in the Latin script. In web pages you can resort to <span style="Latin"> tricks, but this doesn't work for plain text.
This is what people mean when they suggest that your real goal is to abolish the Sinhala script and just write in Latin.
