What kind of mess are you seeing --

* empty squares showing (= no glyph fallback)

That's what I would like to have when the user selects a wrong font.

* proper characters showing but from the wrong font (= glyph fallback)

Usually this is just the case, by the main problem is caused by ligatures.
The historical texts used a lot of ligatures and it's quite confusing when they are split into separate characters.

Best regards

Janusz
