    I'm not sure all the other symbols help much, often you need to see how specific combinations look like (which is the reason for the 0xX inside all three kinds of parentheses in the preview).

    I believe the preview should just give a superficial first impression if the font is roughly "nice" in your own eye, and then you have to try it either on programmingfonts.com (most fonts have a direct link in the font-downloads list), or really by installing.

    I could imagine using the 3 spots below XYZ for more characters, but not expanding the preview a lot.
