Description simono 2009-11-20 13:33:51 UTC
Problem:
- On my system I have about 50+ different fonts, some are used only to display
certain languages (chinese, arabic, hindi, etc) and some are used for outrageous
uses of tekst displays. In most documents (writer, presentation) I use about 3-6
fonts.

I would like a more sensible presentation of the available fonts for when I
select them to be used. There could be several ways to improve:

- allow a list to be configurable to show always, and the rest one further click
on the list

- categorise the fonts into: serious fonts, wild fonts, fonts for i18n support,
symbols

- autolearning (yuk!)

When a faster selection of fonts is possible, this would probably increase
productivity a lot for some use cases.
