Well, it looks like that by now there are not so many XeTeX users who know 
about the advantages of biblatex in comparison to the normal bibtex facilities 
in LaTeX or the numerous other bibtex related packages.

According to the excellent biblatex manual, there are two bibtex entry fields 
who could help you with hyphenation problems: 'language' and 'hyphenation'. 
Have you tried these? If polyglossia manages to pretend being babel for 
biblatex, this should work.

But it would be best to contact Philipp Lehmann, the maintainer of biblatex, 
and urge him to implement polyglossia as a second language interface.
