Hi Seth,

We're having a little discussion on the mailing list and I was 
wondering if you or other HIG people would like to comment on it and 
perhaps guide us to a good solution to it. Relevant links and threads 
include:

Basically, we're wondering if our font combo box should be:

1) Just plain (font names only)
2) All font names should be displayed in their respective font face
3) Only the selected font should be displayed in its respective name
4) Marc's font preview window (see screenshot)
5) Combo of 3&4
6) Other...

We've come up with good arguments for all of these suggestions and 
highly visable places where they are used and not used (such as 
WordPerfect, MSWord, Apple, ...) Any help, insight, direction, or 
otherwise would be very much appreciated by our users. I personally 
will accept make sure that the HIG team's suggestion gets implemented, 
within reason.

Thanks,
Dom
