When I use the application to browse a CJK character (e.g. “文”), I hope the corresponding Unihan information can be displayed on the right panel, which is a feature we currently don't have.
Unihan database is a database provided by Unicode Consortium that provides pronunciations in Chinese (Mandatin, Cantonese, Tang), Japanese (On, Kun), Korean, and Vietnamese; as well as its meaning in English.
Sometimes there are linked characters (e.g. simplified and traditional versions of the same CJK character) where a list of hyperlinks can be provided for easy navigation.
The latest version is available as a single Unihan.zip in plain text or XML format.
As a comparison, the screenshot of Gnome Character Map (aka. gucharmap), which currently only supports Linux:
It would be even better if the contents in the Unihan database can be used for search. (“Search in character details”)
