Well, some fonts would be better than none
(and they have to be made so that
the Unicode standard be printed).
In fact they have to be made before the character can even be proposed.
In the case of complex scripts, a font sufficient to print a code chart is
nowhere near adequate to render that script properly.
An adequate proposal for a complex script should surely include a proper
account of the script behaviour and sample glyphs of presentation forms.
And so such a proposal should include all that is needed for a
developer, and is available some time before the new script is
officially standardised.
If you code chart type glyphs are enough for you then on Windows if you have MS
Office there is always Arial Unicode.
Except that this font is stuck at Unicode 2.something. Or is there any
sign of an update?
