--- Comment #17 from Beat E. <ed1 at edelinfo.ch> ---
There is another use case that I encounter regularly that shows how annoying
today's language drop-down list is. I often start with a Swiss German document
that I have translate into Swiss French. As I am using French as main language
on my computer the languages in the list are in French (as you can see in the
steps below). Here are the step I have to do after I selected all the texts and
went to the font dialog:

1. I click on the arrow on the language field and in the drop-down list
"Allemand (Suisse)" (Swiss German) is highlighted
2. I type "F" for "Français" (French) in order to move down quickly in the
drop-down list
3. I land on "Féroien" (Faroese)
4. I have to scroll down to "Français (Suisse)" 
5. I can select "Français (Suisse)" (Swiss French)

If my installed languages were on top I wouldn't need to go through step 2 to
4. I would see all my language at once on the list and would just have to
select the new language. Today's list is not user-friendly at all. It annoys me
every time. I don't understand why it hasn't been fixed a long time ago. 

For me this is a really annoying bug that needs to be fixed as soon as
possible.
