virtual fonts - as mixed unicode ranges of realfonts - already??

Im looking at the problem of mixing ranges of unicode
from different fonts, to act as a 'virtual' font.

Sometimes you want a distro to configure this, or the
user override - eg mozilla had a dialog to choose
preferred font per language [for sans, serif, mono]

Please clarify - can this be done already in
fonts.conf.

Is anyone working on a GUI to select preferred font
for a unicode range, which updates fonts.conf - like
mozilla approach, but useful for all desktop apps.

Mixing arbitrary unicode ranges into a virtual font
might be needed when some fonts have just a few bad
characters [eg numbers], but normally mixing would be
by language.

Ideas on how to approach it [if not done already]?


Also, is there a way I can get a dump of what font
covers what U+ range? ie.what fc resolved to.

gord.
