The schemes have already been implemented in PackageKit and added to
Debian, we are just missing the metadata (which would be provided by
DEP-11 support in font packages). I'm not in a position to be able to
judge how well it works, haven't tried Fedora at all. You might want
to install it on a spare computer and visit some Wikipedia language
pages.
Personally I would not inflict ttf-unifont on other people.
