With enough typeface available in the form of smart font, it may be a
good option, but before jumping into extreme option ;-), would you
erabolate why it should not be as you suggested for other locales?

For example, here is the one used in Solaris for en_US.UTF-8 locale,
which I think is virtually identical with the one in X.Org's X11R6.6.x.
