That's not a problem at all: font with name Segoe UI Symbol could be added
to Wine just like Tahoma, Wingdings, Webdings and others. I've already created
such a font with just one glyph - 0x25d4.

I have provided an explanation together with an application that generates
complete dwrite fallback ranges.
If that helps I'm fine with just adding U+25A0..U+25FF (Geometric Shapes)
fallback range that fully fits into Segoe UI Symbol, and is a very small
subset covered by that font:
