Again, appearing WenQuanYi Bitmap Song for outside 10~16px is the expected behaviour for current logic right. however it's not the expected behaviour for users. I'm saying that and that logic is wrong then. Even though you have taken responsibility for fallback, causing not working due to no fallback fonts available is a bug and not desirable. it's nearly equivalent to nothing. then why don't you just leave that responsibility to others or just take the above suggestion 1?
If there is no other Chinese fonts cover those code points, for example, any thing between U3400~U4FD5, the best you can get is to display them with bitmaps as wqy-bitmap-fonts covers them. Even for U4E00~U9FA5, UMing have a few thousands missing, those missing ones will still be displayed by bitmaps. Without installing wqy-zenhei, what you suggested is simply not possible.
Heh, I just like the sane solution for long term but not ugly hack or so.
Seriously, I don't have time to argue with you. If you have the authority to modify cvs, go ahead, I don't care. If you believe you can convince me your "long term" solution is better, go write one that works for all the tests in Comment#54, particularly the English desktop. I will commit it without a single more word.
