When writing a letter etc and using different fonts and different font sizes
within it. I would like to be able to hover my mouse over the font and a
message appear telling me the font name and font size. This would be helpful
if you are using a varity of fonts and sizes within a document and forgot
what the particular details of a font used.

Simply click on the word and the formatting toolbar tells you the Font and
size already.

I guess Jensen is right, 80% of people ask for functionality that already
exists but they have not found or bothered to explore.
