Currently only latin characters are generated in funboxes like ascii or gibberish. Would be nice to have support for other character sets like cyryllic, arabic and so on.

Research direction

Start by locating the funbox implementations that generate ASCII and gibberish text. Review how character sets are selected, then determine the supported Cyrillic, Arabic, and other sets and how generated text should be validated. Done means funboxes can generate text from the added character sets without breaking existing Latin output.
