MS might have forseen this for quite a long time.

However, I believe the encoding of symbol characters will make further progress in the future. Many signs now present in Wingdings will become encoded, with or without regard to the present state of these fonts as well as the present behaviour to use them.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
