Indeed. It would be technically possible to have a hyphen.cfg specifically tailored for 
xelatex, and thus use another "language.dat", but this is not a road we should follow.

Also keep in mind that Script=All or Both makes no sense, as the option determines not 
only which hyphenation patterns to load, but also the definitions of captions and date 
formatting...

I'd prefer to have:
serbian loadhyph-sr-cyrl.tex
=serbiancyr
serbianlat loadhyph-sr-latn.tex

Wdyt?
