I agree with you about keeping polyglossia as simple ("pure") as
possible. I nevertheless think it would be useful to have a separate
package gathering various input methods for rare or ancient languages,
aimed towards people who need small inclusions of foreign text: it is
often not a problem writing Unicode source files in one's native
language, but there are many text editors where displaying characters
with a lot of diacritics, or bidirectional text, is still difficult.
