 That's probably not very clear.  I mean 'use the font I specified,
but if a character is missing use a different font for that
character' which seems to be what the the browsers are doing, e.g.
use DejaVu Sans Mono if the character is present in it, then fall
back to FreeMono for things like 'w' or 'y' with dot-over and the
schwa or 'turned e' phonetic symbol.
