helloSystem does not support those languages at this time yet. Once we start supporting those languages we may thing about fonts for them, but Deja Vu will likely not be used since I consider it ugly. It is a "computer" surrogate font, not a font like Helvetica/Nimbus Sans which is used by designers in the "real world".
