Font switching is not all, there should also happen a switch to a  
different language with other typographic rules. Something like  
Babel's \selectlanguage{} might be the right thing: switching the  
text's language, switching the font and its script and language (like  
fontspec offers), plus some internals like writing direction, glue ...
