- Can I rely on every new browser to render this character?

No. This is not only issue of browser but also of installed fonts.

- PDF output, rendered by XEP, misses this character. What can I do?

When specifiyng font-family to use, use list of font-family names and mention some font with lambda in this list. You must then set property font-selection-strategy to character-by-character value.

- Where can I find a description/overview of what is contained in the "ISO-entity-sets" and which of these entitities I can use without worrying whether they are rendered or not?

ISO entity sets are document at the end of DocBook: The Definitive Guide. Actual rendering depends on tools used and their configuration.
