For the \={\i} combination and "Mapping=tex-text" to work, you need to load the xunicode package, which translates the TeX ascii combos back to the proper unicode characters. You wouldn't have to load xunicode (nor the mapping) when using UTF8 input (ī) directly. As often stated on this list: it's easiest to use XeLaTeX by loading the xltxtra package instead of fontspec, it gives you some extra options and features and loads the fontspec and xunicode packages by itself.
