i just found out that there's no long ä in hungarian, and i can't find any workaround to add the required double acute accent on the letter a.

But I find it rather strange that apparently all Cherokee glyphs render as serif on Waterfox and sans-serif on Safari.

(This is probably nothing weirder than the two browsers defaulting to different fonts for Cherokee, but… it’s still weird.)

For some reason the Cherokee A is in a serif font, and the fullwidth one is messed up. Fascinating and infuriating!
