So, this works, but it would be nice if it could be specified to 
fontconfig to just ignore a unicode range.

The problem with deleting characters is that some are in commercial 
fonts, etc. This is particularly true with the Asian fonts.

Of course, in cases such as word processors where the font is explicitly 
selected, it is preferable to use the characters that go with it.
