I think it's worth doing it, considering how little work it would involve.
Then XITS would become a complete font.

In my original post in this thread I suggested that Will just temporarily
add to 'fontspec' an option that

\setmainfont{XITS Math}

means: load XITS Math for upright Roman, and STIXGeneral for everything else.

That would make Old Style figures available in text (of course, upright
Roman only), and would save unnecessary duplication of fonts in the
resulting PDF file.
