            Bug ID: 91130
           Summary: Smaller default font name list
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.0.0.0.alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: ux-advise
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Users can have 100s of fonts on their computer and they would all be listed in
the font name drop down list, though they are highly unlikely to use more than
30 of them, so i'd like to suggest a way to reduce this down for easier font
selection.

My idea is that the font name drop down list will begin with containing only a
short list of fonts that are commonly used and available on a user's system
(e.g. Liberation Serif, Times New Roman, Liberation Sans, Arial, etc) and
additional fonts will be added to the list according to the following
scenarios.

1) A user opens a document which contains fonts not already shown in the list
2) A user clicks on a 'More Fonts...' entry at the bottom of the list and
selects to use a particular font in the character dialog's font tab
