Is it possible to add a search box for font selection?

When I want to change some font, the list is too long(as image shows). So would it be possible to add a search box for font selection so that we can find some fonts quickly?

I tried entering the first letter of the font name, although I could quickly locate the relevant position, but for some Chinese fonts, it was found that they could not be located.

I agree that this list can be somewhat unwieldy. If possible, try to define new paragraph styles using Library > Paragraph Styles that use the fonts you want to use: choosing between a shorter list of available paragraph styles is much easier than choosing between all of the fonts on your system.

Another detail about this interface: When I want to jump to the bottom of a long menu or pick-list on Mac, normally I can mouse-off it (so nothing is highlighted) and hit ↑ to start selecting up from the bottom. This fails in Dorico, I imagine because of Qt’s handling of it. If there is any way to enable this standard behavior, it would be occasionally very helpful.
