Hmm, not quite. Issue is that absent the font (no embed, or not installed to
system) the Special Character dialog does not use the fall-back font. Rather it
uses the System font.

Otherwise, from edit cursor positions using an installed font, the Special
Character dialog opens to that font.

So the Special Character dialog opening to System font is currently
inconsistent as is. But--by picking up the fall-back font replacement in use at
the edit cursor--the dialog could be made more useful and less inconsistent.

That would be regardless of the UI work that the design blog/GSoC'17 might
address.
