I know Adobe has invested considerably in creating many complete Unicode
fonts, not sure if any are free but I could check... even if not free it
may be remotely possible for someone to pay for and donate an unlimited
font license to be distributed with a free product or some such special
deal to be worked out... I see many interesting links on their web site
but nothing immediately obvious regarding this subject...
