            Bug ID: 152487
           Summary: When right-linking a font family combo-box, offer font
                    meta-data
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.5.0.0 alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

When I right-click a font family name in one of the font selection combo-boxes,
it would be nice if I were able to get more information about this font - from
what the font subsystem can access. Specifically: Type (TTF/OTF etc.), Version
number or version string; Copyrights; Designer.

Rationale: 

1. When choosing a font family, sometimes these features may be a
consideration. 
2. Sometimes you want to make sure you're using the right version of a font.
For example - right now, we _aren't_ using the right versions of some bundled
fonts: bug 152473. This is a way to check.
3. This won't clutter the UI, since a user will only be exposed to this when
they right-click a font family name - which is when they want to be able to do
more stuff with the font family anyway.
