In the case of a complex script (like arabic) being written with Courier (or 
any other monospaced font) I'm 
not really sure how the best approach is. It is obvious that there is a 
problem, but what would be a 
solution that can be generally agreed on?

1. does the user expect the text to be using Courier glyphs (even if the font 
doesn't support any arabic)?
2. does the user expect glyphs from another font (supporting arabic), which 
tries to emulate the 
monospaced metrics of the selected Courier font?
3. does the user neither expect the Courier metrics nor the Courier NotDef 
glyphs? In this case why did he 
select Courier in the first place?

Are there any good ideas how to solve this problem?
