[Scribus] Private Area in Unicode Space

Hi,

I tried to access some glyphs in a font that were in a private area, but
couldn't. I could access them in FontForge but not in Scribus (both in
Linux and Windows) glyph pallet. I was able to access them in InDesign-
>Type->Glyph pallet. 

The reason why I wanted to do that was to write a Python script that can
do glyph substitution required for the Tamil language in that particular
font. I know that the font has an in-built mechanism to do that...
but I don't know enough about scribus-code or QT3 to do that.
I there a way to access Private Area characters in Scribus?
