"glyphless-display-mode" looks fine - I read it as to mean
a mode that defines how to display glyphless chars.
It could also provide a defcustom with a choice from
glyphless-char-display-method.

Where I see the problem is that the whole new file was created in
lisp/textmodes/glyphless-mode.el for just glyphless-display-mode,
instead of adding it to lisp/international/characters.el
where this feature is defined with all its functions
glyphless-char-display-control, update-glyphless-char-display,
and more.
