--- Comment #6 from Pedro <vermelhusco1904@gmail.com> ---
Consider more than one projects where completely different fonts are used.
Would be annoying to list the arty Comic for your thesis, right? In the
other (more common) scenario you create similar documents where the
preferred font should always be at hand. So what actually is need is both,
per document and some kind of favorite. I would make this a duplicate of bug
91130. What do you think, Pedro?

I disagree. Bug 911130 refers to something completely different.

My idea is that the font name drop down list will begin with containing only a >short list of 
fonts that are commonly used and available on a user's system (e.g. >Liberation Serif, Times New 
Roman, Liberation Sans, Arial, etc) and additional >fonts will be added to the list according to 
the following scenarios.

1) A user opens a document which contains fonts not already shown in the list
2) A user clicks on a 'More Fonts...' entry at the bottom of the list and selects >to use a 
particular font in the character dialog's font tab

Now, the discussion over there drifted to overlap this bug.
IMO, the use case you mention is something different. It's to have a list of
preferred fonts at the top of the drop-down list, NOT the most recently used.

That's something that could be done in a different manner: allow the user to
pin fonts to the top of the drop-down menu.
