Suggestion: keep focus on current category when dragging font to another category?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I've been using Font Manager more and more lately, and I've noticed an odd 
behaviour. When I move fonts from one category to another, focus goes from 
category 1 to category 2. (Currently I'm working on sorting the 2000-odd 
families in my 'Orphans' category into their own categories, based on style. 
Because it takes a while to load the 2000 fonts when I return to the 'Orphans' 
category, it makes the work slow indeed.)

I realise that my use case is probably rare, as I'm a graphic designer and not 
a casual user, but one observation I have is that standard behaviour in most 
programs -- Evolution, Nautilus, and Rhythmbox, for example -- is to maintain 
focus on the current category/folder when an item is moved elsewhere. It may be 
more consistent to adopt that standard.

Thanks again for a very intuitive program! Looking forward to see what the 
future holds.

Yeah, it really only sucks when you're sorting a large amount of fonts 
initially...

Luckily this was already implemented as an option. Check the preferences 
dialog, should be under "Interface". ;-)

Closing this out as it's a duplicate.

Whee! Thanks for letting me know, and sorry for polluting the bug tracker with 
already-answered issues :-)
