Wouldn't it be helpful to see the font name (in the
status bar?), wich is actually used to display the
selected character, when it differs from the selected
font in the font-bar? For example I may choose
"Bitstream Vera Sans"
as font and I see the
"U+0710 SYRIAC LETTER ALAPH"
but I get no hint, that this character ist actually
drawn in the font "TITUS Cyberbit Basic".
This is a great feature, I'm glad to see it has been added in gucharmap 2.24.1.
I would like to see an option to make substituted characters even MORE prominent. My idea is this: if the character comes from a font other than the one selected, it would be printed on a red background, rather than white.
