There are a couple of program to open a font with KDE, but the truth is that no
user cares which program it needs. All a user wants is the easiest possible
installation of fonts and drag and drop of font files is one such feature which
people expect these days.

Everything below is directed at Florian Reisinger:
This is a bug, because an actual user tells you it is a bug, I am not sure how
you unilaterally can say that it isn't. If you continue to close this bug, I
will just reopen it, for the simple reason that I strongly suspect that you
didn't let $NON-TECHNICAL user on Linux try to solve this problem. Somehow I
suspect that you didn't do this and as such you are just expressing some lame
opinion based on your lack of experience and/or incompetence. 

I am not even opening this bug for myself. I am doing this as a favor for
someone else.  

The fix for this problem is very simple: just implement drag and drop as has
been done in thousands of programs already around the world. If this is too
difficult for you, please just go to some other project (for example, taking
care of your garden or something else low-tech, but stop wasting time in
technical projects on problems which do have solutions). 

I submitted this project a long time ago. I suspect the reason you are so eager
to close this bug is because the rest of the project is full of bugs and that
you can then put on your resumé that you fixed some bugs in LibreOffice, while
in fact you contributed nothing and only walked in the way of others.  

To the LibreOffice project, I'd suggest to kick Florian Reisinger out of the
project as he clearly has a lack of judgement, which is usually fatal to a
software project. If he committed anything, I would also strongly urge you to
go over his commits, because usually such people cannot write software in the
first place. 

If you would rather have that I tell the users in question that LibreOffice
developers would like them to take a hike (which is essentially what you are
saying now), then I will likely tell them to just reboot the machine, install
Word20<hell edition> or whatever it is and tell them to use that. It doesn't
matter to me one bit, just don't go crying when you have nobody using your
software in a few years.
