--- Comment #4 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote@utsa.edu> ---
Not a fan as presented.

With the Format -> Bullets and Numbering dialog the Bullet tab (along with
Numbering, Outline) currently holds 8 sample tiles at a "page" layout ratio
showing 3 bulleted samples.

Because we would not change the dimensions of the Dialog, the layout for the
Bullets tab would have to be adjusted to fit more than 8 samples in the same
frame. This is how the Image/Linked graphic tab is configured.

So the Bullets tab of the dialog could be changed to add an extra rows of 4 as
in the Image tab, perhaps also including a button action for selecting and
sizing a glyph via the Special Character dialog.

But, as the dialog functions now, any one sample tile and corresponding style
can be adjusted from the Customize dialog (either bullets, numbering, outline
or Image/linked graphic).

So this is strictly a request to change the default 8 tiles to having more
bullet styles show--it is not a functional requirement as you can already
customize the bullet style once applied to use any glyph(s) from any font.

As an aside, the glyphs for the currently displayed bullets are all draw from
OpenSymbol font not Cantarell. And when customizing bullets the Special
Character dialog should be opening to OpenSymbol--but is incorrectly opening to
a system font (Segoe UI in my case on Windows 10). Just opened see also bug
