Obviously I am biased as an organist, but I feel the pipe organ is a special case due to the appalling GM implementation of the sounds possible.
All the other instruments in the default Fluid soundfont bear a good resemblance to the actual sound of the instrument, apart from pipe organ. Agreed it is somewhat specialist, and your idea about a "curated" collection is a great idea. Perhaps that is the way forward on this? Again a better way to install soundfonts would be good - do you have anything particular in mind? I do think that it is important to maintain an official subset of "supported" soundfonts to guarantee playback on musescore.com. Whether we would need to include it in the default install is debatable, but easy access to a MuseScpre customised version of Jeux (and any other soundfont we wish to have tweaked versions of), downloadable from a link in say Preferences would IMO be a great idea. In the case of Jeux, some alterations will need to be made to the soundfont to make it work well with MuseScore, which is why I want to get John McCoy's blessing first.
