I would only agree, *if* what the control show would be exactly what would
happen on key press. I.e., when even the space would be rendered using the font
shown in the control. If the control shows a font with a space having width X,
but pressing the space gives width Y from another font, it is already bad.

I consider this issue *only* solvable after another your bug, about assigning
language groups to punctuation and friends. Maybe I just didn't notice, and
that's already solved? If so, then I likely must drop my concern.
