Currenty the font selection dialog shows the name of the font in preview. In
Hungarian community builds there is a patch which alters this behaviour.

It alters the font selection dialog so that it would show a sentence instead of
the font name. The rationale behind this is that this way the user gets a
visible feedback whether the actual font contains all the glyphs that his
language needs. In Hungarian we use the "külvízen úszó szárazjégtörő kisjármű"
sentence which shows all the accented latin characters we use and a quick glance
gives back the user the feedback whether the actual font contains all the
Hungarian glyphs he will need.
I think if we were to clean up this patch, then it should become the default for
all languages. We could make the sample sentence (e.g. The quick brown fox
jumped over the lazy dog) localisable through the l10n framework.
