Pretty much only valid part of this is:
> winecfg cannot set the System to other font or adjust the font fallback

as that would be nice to have; the rest goes under: well, duh.

Yes, it would be nice if FontSubstitutes for CJK system fonts (and a few other
non-Latin scripts) could be set though an easier gui method, than going into
regedit.

This problem didn't exist on early wine version
Do you know how to solve this problem?

Really? Could you do a regression test to figure out which recent change caused
it? https://wiki.winehq.org/Regression_Testing

I actually tested it, and found that the problem doesn't exist on 8.0, but on
9.0 and later.
