Cannot reproduce: it shows the correct character, when you choose fonts containing it. E.g., DejaVu Sans.

Note that LibreOffice does *not* "generate" characters; Special Characters dialog only shows characters present in the selected font.

Agree => NAB, the "Special Character..." dialog's font chart does not show a "composite" of all fonts on system. Rather it shows the font chart only for the font selected in the dialogs listbox.

Providing "font coverage" lookup, i.e. "list all fonts that cover U+266E" would be a possible enhancement to the Special Character dialog, but there are other utilities that do it well already. E.g. Andrew West's BabelMap
