Description Callegar 2021-10-02 08:02:36 UTC 
Description:
Some fonts are available in different font weights, for instance extra-light, light, regular, medium, semi-bold, bold, extra-strong.  As of today it is not easy to associate a specific weight combination to regular and bold text (e.g. regular for normal text + semi bold for bold — what you get with CTRL-B).

I believe this is ultimately a sub-issue of bug 35538, although this report focuses on a more specific aspect about marking one weight as the "bold" format (Ctrl+B) of another.  However I don't think it has much benefit to discuss this separately, so marking as DUPLICATE.

Feel free to switch back if you disagree.
