Description
Characters are displayed as blank boxes. This would be fine, if it were just one box, for the search term "box", but the repetitiveness of those boxes showing up, leads me to believe that this is indeed not intended behavior.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the blank-box display shown in the attached image, including the search term "box" and the repeated boxes in the results. Trace how QuickKey displays special characters and identify the cause of the missing glyphs. Done means the affected characters render correctly without introducing incorrect boxes for the search term.
