Sound like what you're asking for is the recently described "more
elaborate remapGlyphs" (or at least more elaborate than at present).
Are you looking for a remapping from one font to another, or just a
remapping to a different glyph in the same font for some character
values we don't currently cover?
If it's the latter, it's easy to do (really just a change to a default
property value) once the intellectual business has been done of
figuring out what glyphs need remapping to what.
If it's the former, I can probably brew up something at least
minimally useful, though it would be at least a couple weeks out.
(I've hit a particularly busy patch at the Day Job.)
