not true; what you observe is that font defs are frozen; an option is to define
multiple typeface collections, since these store information; so,
\definetypeface[timesa][rm][serif][times][default[encoding=texnansi]
\definetypeface[timesb][rm][serif][times][default[encoding=ec]
now you can use both intermixed

\timesa \bf test \pushcurrentfont \timesb \popcurrentfont test
alternatively you can define symbols for those special chars, see symb-*.tex;
\getglyph is also an option; this one follows the style
