Public bug reported:

Font selector in the animated title editor uses PIL's ImageFont module
since r442. However, it extracts the font names from .ttf files
regardless of current locale and assumes the names contain only ASCII
characters, so some fonts having only multibyte name become unreadable
in the dropdown menu. (See screenshot)
