Current fonts each tend to cover one language and *English*.
One of the main intents of larger code coverage is to allow
documents to have two or more languages where none of them is
English. For example, what font setting could you pick if the
document had:
Traditional Chinese and Cyrillic
Simplified Chinese and Thai
Korean and Japanese
Portuguese and Devanagari
