I wonder whether XeTeX could recognize this automatically. The Awami
font in question, for example, doesn't contain a script tag for
Arabic. If the font gets requested with
\newfontfamily\urdufont[Script=Arabic]{Awami Nastaliq}
xelatex could try the Graphite engine instead.
Note sure whether my idea makes sense since I don't have any knowledge
of Graphite stuff...
