Thanks for your suggestions Khaled and Pete.

I guess I'll just alter the fontfeatures when needed. Polyglossia and the bidi package are already in use for hyphenation, language switching etc.

Best,
Volker

is it possible to use a single font for multiple scripts with fontspec without doing any font switching or altering font features?


Yes, if it supports all characters. And you would have to "divide" this font into "sub-font" instances to be able to use the script depending font features. This is not bad, because you would have to use different language environments to use their proper hyphenation etc. rules in any way. And you would have to declare writing direction when it changes from default left-to right.
