Me too. Showing the font is a good idea from a usability standpoint, however:

1. If we're designing for the low-end user (low-end systems and resources) the less we use up the better.

2. On my 17" monitor, Word's live font display is fine; a smaller screen would cause trouble.

Perhaps Abi could show the font outlines in the style editing dialog font-picker instead of all the time on the toolbar? If Abi made it easy to edit styles (and less buggy), maybe this is a good compromise?
