So, are you certain that Google has received the request/suggestion to use
a freeware control for font?  Did you suggest it through the official
channels more than once?

This forum is great for soliciting ideas, or support for your ideas, but
since it's not an official Google channel, you can't be certain that they
know what people want.  I personally, for ideas I had in the past, drafted
my idea here and asked others to suggest it, while I myself suggested it.
Many of those ideas became options, at least closely resembling my
suggestion.
