Frequently CTL users have a problem choosing a font when writing in their
langauge. When looking at the font drop-down list, there is no way of knowing
whether a given font supports the CTL language. 

I've written a patch for the font drop-down list, so that each line displays not
only the font name, but also a sample of CTL text, if the font supports the
default CTL langauge. For example, instead of 'Arial', it will display 'Arial —
אבג' (the first three letters of the Hebrew alphabet).

If the font does not support the default CTL language, but does support the
default Western language, it adds a sample of the Western Langauge. For example,
instead of 'Arial', it will display 'Arial — ABC'. 

If the font supports neither the default Western, not the default CTL language,
no sample is added to the name of the font.

I mentioned this in Issue 23402 which deals with a related problem, but since
the patch does not directly address the issue discussed there, I'm filing it as
a separate issue.
