Having ignored the related threads almost entirely, is it too late to
cast my meaningless vote for marc's one? The font in which the font
name is displayed is whatever it's set to in gtk prefs (like....gconf)
and the preview box shows the font itself. So, case wingdings, one sees
the name wingdings so he knows what font he's choosing, but can also get
a feel for what it'll look like.
Whereas if the font name in the menu were to be in the font itself, it
would be (IMHO) a PITA to pick a font esp if looking for one in
particular or deciding from significantly non-sans fonts and (IMNSHO) a
perf disaster.
HIGgies?
