When right-clicking a font file make an entry to "install font"  
Written by pepperpupper the 18 Sep 08 at 14:58. Implemented
Make an entry to "install-font" in the context menu when right-clicking a font file. The font would then be moved to the appropriate directory in the home folder. It took me a while to figure out how to install fonts!

Selected solution (#2): install fonts by control center app, NOT Install fonts by right click menu
Written by pitwalker@gmail.com the 27 Feb 09 at 09:57.
Font installing is not a frequent operation,
this may be slow down the left click menu appear.
(like M$-WINDOWS!)
Currently we can install m$ core fonts by package manager.
