Bug#247087: /usr/bin/gnome-font-viewer: font testing string should be configureable

[Mike Hommey]

Package: capplets
Version: 1:2.6.1-1
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/gnome-font-viewer
Tags: experimental

The string shown by the gnome font viewer should be changeable by user
request, for that one may want to look at a japanese, korean, whatever font,
and with the standard english sentence, you have no clue about what the
japanese, korean, whatever characters in the font can look like.

The interesting thing is that this sentence is localized, so that a
japanese sentence shows up in japanese locale.
