Fortunately there are only a handful of such cases. But unfortunately there are tons of commonly used CJKV ideographs; typical Chinese or Japanese fonts are of course not expected to have all Chinese characters (there are almost 100,000 of them while OpenType fonts can only have 65K glyphs), but they are expected to have thousands of commonly used characters.
