Thinking about it some more a complete glyph table is probably too much, and a
bitmap preview won't work too well depending on the target system dpi, to the
best thing is probably a pdf with the embedded glyphs necessary for a few
pangrams, and a list of unicode blocks/scripts with complete coverage

Eugeniy Meshcheryakov has a written a little tool to generate complete PDF
glyphs tables with embedded fonts, it can probably serve as inspiration to do
the same for pangrams
