The file has only an w:hAnsi attribute, but an attribute w:ascii is needed.

Yes. But for a BULLET or a BLACK STAR you will not guess, what substitution is
used. Try CLOUD (U+2601) or SNOWMAN (U+2603) or WHITE RIGHT POINTING INDEX
(U+261E). Those ones are easier to identify.

So "correct font" is more precise: In case the bullet has no font associated in
the file, the special character dialog should open with the same replacement
font, that is used to render the bullet in text and preview.

What should happen, if the bullet has an associated font, but the font is not
available on the PC of the current user?

However, I think the dialog should be improved for such situations.
