Is there a way to scroll through the Font list, or other lists in Houdini ?
There's this huuuge list of fonts and it smells like the only way to check what font to use is to open the dropdown menu , manually scroll down , select next font rinse and repeat....
I tried all kinds of hotkeys like Arrow Up/Down etc. but all that got me were crashes.

Sadly no. Not right now. The font SOP is truly outdated, and has been for years.
However, this is trivial to create a subnetwork that has an additional integer parameter, that holds a hardcoded list of the font files, and have a font detail attribute somewhere which the Font SOP can refer to using: details(...,"font")
I tested it with the actual font files (full path on the filesystem), and it's working.
And you can tie the font detail to a given element of the font list with a integer parameter.
in a detail wrangle
s@font=s@fontList;
Finally, this subnet could be saved as a Digital Asset, and be integrated into your operators. I can't tell you much more than that, but that's a way to do it,
