It seems to not cover all the symbols in Symbol (what a great font
name), or the original bug fixed by the commit in
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/30932/ wouldn’t happen in the first
place.

So my question is really what is the current indented behaviour, as I
see loots of mystifying mentions of symbol font, conversion tables and
all convoluted stuff I can’t warp my head around.
