I can confirm this is happening.
But the place to do it is:

Basically submit your message there, you already have the screen capture and the bug description, it should take 1 minute.

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 The font SOP is truly outdated, and has been for years.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,

Also, the problems disappear on that machine using the Qt5 version:
