Is there a name for the Firefox Unicode Font of Last Resort that I can use in a HTML font tag or in css?

Firefox has a documented "font of last resort" for Unicode characters it can't find a font for: a box with 4 or 6 hex digits in it. Is there a name for this font (I consider it a real font) that I can use in a HTML font tag or in a style sheet to use it other than as a last resort (e.g. *second* resort)? I have some "character demo" pages showing a character in a dozen Unicode fonts and I'd prefer it not show a character the font doesn't have, not steal one from another installed font.

font-family: Code2000, FirefoxUnicodeFontOfLastResort, IEUnicodeFontOfLastResort, OperaUnicodeFontOfLastResort;

Incidentally, Apple's LastResort font is unsatisfactory because it's unreadable at point sizes below about 24.

Not that I know of.
Maybe it works if you would specify a font (!important) that doesn't have those glyphs.
