Have a look at the "font linking" section of this document:

  http://www.unicode.org/iuc/iuc16/c6/paper.pdf

It doesn't provide any examples, but if I read correctly, the "lang" attribute
in the HTML, and the charset parameter on the Content-Type metadata, are hints
that are used in this process, while CSS properties and rules take higher 
precedence.
