Because the font used by the Character tool does not contain glyphs some
for characters. In such case, the missing glyph is replaced a small
rectangle.

Currently the answer is no.

To a certain extent: only in the "Favorites" section.

The Character tool has a "Favorites" section. Right-click on a character
and choose "Show Favorites" from the popup menu OR look for "Favorites"
at the very end of the top combobox.

You can specify the contents of the "Favorites" section by forcing a
"favoriteCharsInTable" user preference.

Linux (bash) example:
---
~$ xxe -putpref favoriteCharsInTable "àéèïöùü" &
---
(The difficulty here is to express the characters in a way that is
understood by the shell used to start XXE.)
