I wanted to block fallback for just one user. It seems that is not
possible.
As I understand, the solution with Pango requires making a special build
of libpango. That would make it awkward to switch back and forth.
No, I think you could get away with subclassing (or using a patched
version of) GtkTextView and GtkTextLayout in your app. (Their current
API doesn't seem to allow setting arbitrary PangoAttributes.)
It seems the only configuration solution is to disable fallback for the
whole system. What is the cleanest way to do that? I tried renaming the
files in /etc/fonts/conf.avail, but that had no effect.
I think any fontconfig-based approach to control Pango's fallback can
only be the second-best solution because Pango knows the context a lot
better. fontconfig doesn't know whether a requested font for a certain
lang is going to be used for a large chunk of text, or only a single
character.
