I wrote down a small investigation here. You probably already know it
though but thought it could help.
Description of issue:
when you have too many fonts,
To reproduce:
* Download a font pack, say with 1000 fonts.
* In Pinta open an image
* click on `Text`
* select the font drop down
The UI thread will hang. This makes drawing text functionally impossible
in Pinta when you have too many fonts.
On a Ryzen 7 2700:
Pinta freezes for 45 seconds when there are 2300 fonts in the system.
Opening the combobox then takes ~1:10 and is unusable as the list is larger
than the screen.
Fails on 3 different machines here all with different distributions and
versions of Pinta.
confirmed to be an issue on 1.6-2
Potential hint?
I am pretty certain this is a combobox issue on GTK's side and making it
virtual with a scroll would solve the problem.
