1. Open a text file.
2. Bring up the context menu on the left ruler margin > Preferences...
3. You are in the 'General > Editors > Text Editors' preference page.
4. Click the 'Colors and Fonts' preference page.
5. You jump to the other preference page but it doesn't show up in the tree.

This feels a little weird to me. While there's no telling as to what pages a particular preference page will link to, it seems to me that the 'Colors and Fonts' preference page should be included in this list given that it's _directly_ related to the text editor (as I can change the text font there).
