Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Some fonts only cover basic Latin script, some even just ASCII plus a few programming specific characters. But if you need support for Chinese, Kanji, Cyrillic, you name it, you currently can't tell which font would provide that.
Furthermore, due to how fallbacks work, in browsers and operating systems more broadly, it's also visually hard to tell if what you're seeing actually comes from the selected font or something else.
Right now one would have to go to the font's website and try to find this information.
Describe the solution you'd like
Per for a clear description of what is supported. Ideally as some kind of checklist of supported languages. Or if that's not feasible, replicate how the font documentation describes what it supports.
Perhaps a "more info" popup could describe this and perhaps other details like OpenType alternatives.
Consider also how Google Fonts and Fontsquirrel, or perhaps MyFonts and others, provide such information.
