I've just followed Jonathan Fritz's path.  Having freshly installed 7.10
I did System -> Preferences -> Main Menu to see what could be changed.
Finding Applications -> Other -> Gnome Font Viewer I thought it sounded
useful and ticked it.  Selecting the newly appeared menu item show a
minimised button in the panel saying "starting" which disappears after a
bit.  The user is left confused and puzzled and has to waste time
investigating.

If it doesn't make sense to run it from a menu then it shouldn't be
there in the menu choices for the user to trip over.  It would be nice
if some effort can be made to see if it can be removed without impacting
its use an a Nautilus action.

** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)
       Status: Invalid => Confirmed
