How to change the weight of a font in gimp?

One way out is duplicate the text layer so that they reinforce each other.

Then merge them if editing text is no longer required.

Ah, that is a simple way to fix.  Not perfect, but much better than it was.

This wasn't limited to 2.10.  I've seen something similar this in 2.8 as well.

Would be nice if a weight could also be applied to text. How would I ask for that to be added to gimp's backlog?

Thanks,
