Yes, the language character sets are uniquely identified. Hebrew
characters are in the range: 0590–05FF

I'm not sure if Yiddish uses the same or different characters/range.

Doing this will have performance impact, so you probably want a
system-wide preference to turn on testing. It probably will increase
memory usage as well.

That is very hard. So don't do that.
