Feature Request - Show what font is used

When you have text on a prop (like a matrix or pixel tree or another high density prop), it would be great to able to tell what font is being used. There are times I want to go back and change the words or just open a sequence with text to see what font was used so I can use the same font again. Right now it shows the words you type and defaults to the top of the list in the drop down box with no way of knowing what font was used. Maybe have it default or highlight the current text that is used. Or another box that shows the font that is used.

As a kind of workaround, you can save the Text motion effect to your favorites and include the font name in the filename for future use.

A text effect can use multiple fonts. One way to view them is to copy the text from the Motion Effect Generator and paste it into MS Word... and it will show you the font(s) used.
