--- Comment #3 from V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> ---
IIUC identifying the actual font used for missing glyph(s) fallback (i.e. no
Unicode coverage) is managed by the os/DE in use, i.e. fontconfig on Linux,
which actually makes the font selection for missing glyphs/fonts based on
configuration.
LibreOffice's UI handling of replacement fonts and fallback is related but
already open: see bug 61134, bug 94327, bug 96872
Only question there is if the UI is made sufficiently granular to handle single
codepoint fallback, e.g. maybe provide a Find & Replace dialog mode for glyph
fallback.
Disabling glyph fallback substitution--and so showing an installed/assigned
fonts' "undefined" placeholder glyph on LO document canvas--is a legitimate
approach to handling glyph fallback.
It was tangentially provided but has now been removed by dropping
"SAL_DISABLE_FC_SUBST" control.
The general user preference will be for glyph fallbak as provided by os/DE,
IMHO don't see much demand to override that as IIUC it is not possible to
implement cross platform. But I'd like to hear dev perspective on that.
