No, in a few cases we make an exception (for bold mostly some symbols I 
guess). But for normal scripts like Cyrillic we require that all glyphs 
are in each of the Normal/Bold/Oblique/Bold Oblique fonts.

We don't require the glyphs to be in each of Sans/Serif/Mono fonts 
though, and also ExtraLight is an exception.
