For the CJK, Thai, Indian, and other non-latin based languages, different font sets would be needed, and again the updates would have to be built individually.
Technically you could probably use BitStream Cyberbit and Arial Unicode as your Serif and Sans fonts if you wanted all of the unicode glyphs, but this is overkill and would cost you the ability to have bold or italics.

Maybe you can just teach us how to make the update ourselves then? I think all hacks are not meant to be used by the average joes anyway.
BTW, Droid is a good font. It is also relatively tiny w.r.t the blocks it covered.
