This isn't the right forum, indeed. The debian-vote mailinglist is meant
for votes by Debian Developers as procedurally required from time to
time by our constitution; it is not for making suggestions to the
distribution.
The debian-devel mailinglist is probably more appropriate, although
filing a bug on the relevant package (not sure which one that would be,
unfortunately) would be even more so.
I've added a Cc and set mail-followup-to there to indicate that replies
should be directed there only. Please adhere to that suggestion ;-)

My suspicion is the former rather than the latter. I don't know if we
have a lot of Arabic-speaking contributors (possibly not), so if you
think this situation can be improved, I'm sure that will be welcomed.
-devel: where and how do we select default fonts? Personally I have no
clue :)
