[Feature Request] Upload Fonts for Non-Unicode Scripts

At the moment, courses for languages that use scripts that aren’t on the Unicode consortium can’t access the full functionality of Memrise, and instead have to use pictures for all the vocabulary, which means typing lessons are pretty much out of the question, and making the courses themselves can be really arduous.
It’d be great if Memrise added a way to upload a font for the language in the course, which would automatically be applied to prompts in that language, the typing box, and the character set at the bottom which helps the user to type (and of course that feature being woven into iOS and Android would be nice too).
This will apply most to the natural languages with fewer speakers, as well as constructed languages, but also means that, if you wanted to do a serbian course, for instance, you could make the Cyrillic letters look like how they should in Serbia, etc.

Here’s an example of what I’m envisaging:

In that example, I suggested the ability to upload both a serif and a sans-serif font, since there are two different fonts used in the courses usually. If the course-owner only had one font they could use, they’d upload the same one for both of them.
