I think we should do that only for those languages that can't be shown
in the menu. Since this depends on a complex interaction of platform,
fonts and locales, I think the programmer wanting to put something
into a menu can't be reasonably expected to make a guess.
So I think that we should add something like
(defun menu-string-supported-p STRING &optional DISPLAY)
that will tell a programmer whether a given platform is supposed to
be able to display a given string.
This might be ok in theory, but I'd rather do something simpler.
