Summary	0004995: Failure To Resolve Project Fonts If A Resource Using It Is In Custom Dictionary
Description	Currently, it appears that it is possible to generate a XAML error related to Studio being unable to resolve a Project-located font file, if the Resource is moved outside of the GlobalDictionary, even if the ResourceDictionary is merged into GlobalResources. Repro Steps: 1) Download, unzip, and open the attached Studio Project. 2) In the Resources Panel, click on Button_Resources.xaml found merged under the GlobalResources dictionary. Observe how a XAML error is thrown upon opening of the file. 3) Click on the XAML error notification in the lower-right of the Stage. Observe how the error is related to inability to resolve the font file that is part of the Project. 4) Return to Studio, and from the Resources Panel, select Button_Resources.xaml, and move the 'Button_PlaceOrder_Template' Resource back under GlobalResources. Observe how the XAML error disappears from Button_Resources.xaml Expected Results: Project-contained fonts are able to be resolved, and accessible by any Resource/Dictionary without issue.

If the desired FontFamily is then selected from this ComboBox, Studio instead forces an Absolute Path (eg /ProjectAssembly;component/path/to/the/ttf/#family_name )
