I cannot really help you here, but you might be pleased to hear that François
Charette, the author of polyglossia, is also one of the guys behind biber
(http://biblatex-biber.sourceforge.net/ ). Biber is meant to replace bibtex
(the program) for biblatex. So you can be assured that the biblatex people are
quite aware of the problems of multingual bibliographies (multiscript support
is also on the roadmap:
https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/biblatex/index.php?title=Roadmap ).
