Just to clarify: Most of the work on the new menu was getting *all* the
available fonts listed in the menu, which is not a re-implementation
(unfortunately) and is something I am (and have been) determined to
have in 2.2 one place or another (and I'm quite happy to put this in
the toolbar and/or palette if pop-up menus accept submenus). The fancy
font thing was just a couple of minutes' extra work (and done primarily
out of curiosity to see whether it *could* be done).
