[xep-support] Font family switching

Hi,

I have a question about font family's. 

I'm running XEP 3.31 with:

<fo:block font-family="Bembo, Arial"> Like a &#x2264; sign or the
&#x2265; sign.</fo:block>
<fo:block font-family=" Bembo, 'Zapf Dingbats', Symbol"> Like a bull:
&#x25cf; and more text and the radical sign: &#x221A; text
after.</fo:block>

Looking into the resulting PDF I noticed that the text before &#x2264;
is formatted with the Bembo font and the &#x2264; symbol with Arial. The
problem is that the text after &#x2264; is also formatted with Arial and
not Bembo. My idea was that when XEP encounters a character that is not
found in the first font listed in font-family it will use the second
font and so on. 

In my opinion it should return to the first font (Bembo in my case)
after the &#x2264; symbol as it does in the second block (it switches
from Bembo, to Zapf Dingbats for the &#x25cf; back to Bembo and then to
Symbol for the &#x221A; sign back to bembo etc.). Any idea's?
