I can see and appreciate the arguments in both directions for this. I
think the problem we're going to face - whichever approach we choose -
is keeping the different fonts in synch for character coverage,
especially as we're effectively aiming to crowd-source our glyph designs.
In many cases, however, "filling" a Unicode block once you have a few
key glyph designs is going to be very straightforward as there's a hell
of a lot of composites out there.
