maybe a big fallback virtual font covering all of unicode ... With Arial Unicode as fallback ;-)
I can try to get some Microsofties* to the meeting. Perhaps they'll agree :-) :p
actually the typography part of ms is not that bad -) also, if i'm right all linux distributions permit you to download/install fonts from ms (someow these fonts are free); not sure about osx
After all, if I forget about all the advantages of it (covering unicode symbols where typeface doesn't matter so much etc.), the approach would be fully compatible with Word in that respect, replacing all accented letters with the ones from the fallback font :-)
well, you may as well expect worse in the tex community ... font feature abuse and such
But after all: there's LinLibertine or the (symbol) Unicode font that one of you has mantioned a few days ago.
yes, those fonts are very complete; i wonder if they may be distributed with tex ...
