Hi
I've been reading a bit. What I propose is an alternative way to handle
all the tricky parts of font and character handling with fontspec in
lualatex and xetex. This package restricts the use of the ams* packages
to pdflatex, because fontenc handles that internally and produces
package collisions.
Attached is the final version of the patch.
Best, /PA

I understand.
My question is to clarify how useful it is.
Because I am not deeply familiar with how fontenc works for non-English
languages, it is hard to judge how useful it will be in practice.
... I'm also playing with
org-latex-default-packages-alist, refining it to use fontspec in
lualatex and xetex and restricting inputenc and fontenc to pdflatex only.
Aren't inputenc and fontenc already restricted to pdflatex only?

lisp/org.el: switch to fontspec for character and font management
in lualatex and xetex. This implies explicitly importing the
ams* packages is only needed with pdflatex.
