I checked Word, IE, and Netscape, and each of them use a listbox
widget, not the menu, to select fonts. That font thingy in Word is,
in win32 terminology, an "owner-draw" listbox, meaning that the
programmer is overriding the default appearence to display different
fonts and to draw a line below the most recently used fonts at the top
of the box. I don't know enough about gtk to know if they support
anything like that.
