Given Mojca's comments, have you considered luatex/mkiv instead of xetex?  
That will give you working and supported higher-level control of opentype  
fonts etc etc. It sounds like you're willing to experiment, in which case  
mkiv might be worth spending some time with. I typeset an acedmic journal  
with it as well.

Best wishes
Idris
