SUMMARY In System Settings, it would make more sense to have "Font Management" next to "Fonts" as one would expect. I propose that they exist next to each other so that the user doesn't have to work hard to locate everything related to font configuration. One time, I gave up looking for the "Font Management" KCM because I found the "Fonts" KCM and had a momentary mini-panic that my system lacked font management capabilities. I didn't know that I had to keep scanning down the category list from "Fonts". STEPS TO REPRODUCE Open System Settings. Click on the Appearance category. OBSERVED RESULT In the sidebar list, notice that "Fonts" and "Font Management" are separated by two unrelated topics. EXPECTED RESULT "Fonts" and "Font Management" make more sense to be right next to each other in the list.

Probably a sane idea. Personally I think the Font Management KCM shouls be removed from System Settings and invoked as a standalone app, as it's sort of on the weird and niche side of being a system configuration page. But until and unless we do that, I think your idea makes sense.

Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. kcms/kfontinst: move to right under the Fonts KCM Otherwise we have two font-related KCMs but they're not adjacent, and that just seems kind of weird.
