 I recently was testing out some fonts and switched one of the fonts to the
 one I was testing and it seems that the new font doesn't display correctly
 and seems to have wigged out many of the gui apps.  I am not able to
 switch it back due to the font prefs app not displaying correctly (see
 attached image).  Deleting the Font_Settings in
 /boot/home/config/settings/ didn't help.  There should be a way to fall
 back to the default settings, but it's not clear to me and probably not
 clear to 90%+ of users what you should to to fall back to defaults (if
 it's even possible).  Also it seems there's no "Component" avaiable on
 trac for "Preferences/Fonts".
