    3. I propose a way of typing out your font with an auto finder. Also that once you go back to change the font it auto snaps to the last selected font.

    6. /usr/share/fonts doesn't exist on some non-FHS compliant distros (e.g. NixOS) — ideally Mangojuice should use Fontconfig to discover available fonts instead of hardcoding a directory to look for fonts.
