--- Begin Message ---Package: gnome-specimen Version: 0.4-3 Severity: normal Hi! I am in awe about this really helpful and nice tool. Though, there is one drawback that I noticed (possibly because of my German locale): gnome-specimen does display characters that aren't included in the font with the default font it seems. That is, if a font doesn't contain informations for e.g. German umlauts, gnome-specimen will still display rendered umlauts - but they are coming from a totally different font. I almost was about to file a bugreport against a font for b0rked characters because of this until I looked more closer. It would be a better idea to display the not found box [] or nothing at all instead of the corresponding character from the default font, to make it clear that the font doesn't contain support for that character.
