[XeTeX] Polyglossia bugs (?)

I've come across two minor oddities in polyglossia (1.1.1 tested on MacTeX/TexLive2009 and on TeXLive 2009 GNULinux), which look like bugs to me:

a) Using the polyglossia-command \textitalian{} inserts an extra space, other \text...{}-commands don't. 
b) \setdefaultlanguage{latin} changes the default font to monospaced.

Best regards,
Florian



\documentclass[12pt]{article}

\usepackage{polyglossia}

\setromanfont[Mapping=tex-text]{Hoefler Text}

\setdefaultlanguage{latin}


\setotherlanguages{italian,french,english}



\begin{document}

In pricipio erat \textitalian{Verbum}

In pricipio erat \textfrench{Verbum}
