In the Font Palette, under Filters, please add English, or Latin, or Western European Roman. PLEASE!!!
The lack of a Western European or Roman filter is insanely stupid. The way it works now, if I want to work in Burmese, I can have a nice short font list. But if I want to work in English, I have to show ALL LANGUAGES, so I wind up with a list of 400 fonts, most of which are unusable. This seems prejudicial, if not negligent. Why on earth was this obvious filter item excluded????

As per the team, they do understand that it’s an issue for folks working across multiple languages.
In Illustrator, however, the font filtering is based on script, not a simple language grouping. Hence it’s not very straight forward to do for Latin. There is no concrete plan or timeline to make it resolved, but it’s now added to the backlog.
Thank you all for raising this up. Feel free to share more thoughts, do report, request, comment, and upvote — this really helps to steer the development.

I agree on the "insanely stupid" lack of.
Please add filtering.
