�The unification of these alphabets into a single Old Italic script 
requires language-specific fonts because the glyphs most commonly 
used may differ somewhat depending on the language being 
represented.� � The Unicode Standard, �Old Italic�, page 336.

�For actual use, it might be advisable to use a seperate font for each
Runic system.� � Ibid, �Runic�, page 342.

I�d say it�s an unrealistic scenario.
