The user story would be "Benjamin wants to get an overview as he don't know
what fonts are installed on the current system" and this is more up to the font
management tool than to the word processor.

Just open the character dialog. Or think of the sidebar. Put the font name
combobox somewhere at the bottom.

>> * Keyboard only usage not simple
> In total 6 keypresses - including writing 'Mont'.

Sure, you can enter the font name. But wouldn't the user expect to select with
"Mo" and cursor down?


Your solution would suit the third option in this recent post about
improvements for font listing
https://design.blog.documentfoundation.org/2018/02/18/improvements-font-listing/
and we discussed it respectively. But the nobody was really thrilled by your
idea.
