I keep meaning to get back to this to finish it out. It requires a bit of a refactor of the app to do it "correctly" as the block list has no knowledge of the font (and hence the blocks contained). The blocks that are defined by BeOS are far fewer than the Character map contains, and looking up the non-Be blocks is less efficient. Also the blocks aren't cached so looking them up multiple times can be slow. I really should just finish this since I have all the context...

pushed a CR for this ticket: https://review.haiku-os.org/c/haiku/+/2739

I decided not to do a larger refactor as the code changes are not bad. Performance is reasonable for large fonts with a lot of CJK characters.
