--- Comment #3 from David F Smith <davidjudysmith at gmail.com> ---
Heiko Tietze, in Comment 2, says "...Outline does the trick," but that misses
the point of my request, which is to select a font color that's different from
the outline color.  Outline does not do that trick.  Bug 103996, which Heiko
references, and which is a duplicate of mine, contains a comment from V Stuart
Foote to the effect that achieving this goal is "trivial to do in the Fontwork
feature...."  I disagree.  I have not found that getting the output of Fontwork
to match normal text in point size, character width, or spacing is trivial at
all, and some fonts (e.g., Magneto) give very strange results in Fontwork
because of overlapping characters.  In fact, using Fontwork is even more
tedious than the manual, multistep process that I described in my request.

You may of course choose not to implement this enhancement, but please don't
dismiss it so casually.
