The font family selection drop-down menu with a bunch of different wants
When selecting a font (family) on the formatting toolbar of Writer or the Text
Formatting toolbar of Impress etc, there's a drop-down list of font families.
For each of these we see its name in English, and in the case of fonts somehow
associated with an RTL-CTL language, a phrase in that language: אָלֶף־בֵּית
עִבְרִי
for Hebrew, or ابجدية عربية for Arabic etc.
... except that this fails for many Hebrew fonts.
Some of these fonts don't have glyphs for Hebrew Nikkud, and _probably_ for
this reason, they only show some, or none, of the phrase, e.g. just אב . This
is true for fonts such as Abraham, Daniel, Amit, and even Anka CLM (most CLM
fonts show the full phrase, you see).
Some have weirder behavior, like the Aharoni (not CLM) font, which shows a
bunch of final-form letters with Dagesh (emphasis) marks and other Nikkud - and
they do have Nikkud. The Acheneli font shows the phrase גלצ for some reason.
Seeing this with:
