I have a module (@font-your-face) that stores it fonts in the database, 3000+ records. I want to make those exportable, so that enabled fonts can be saved in Features. I have two problems:

- The option list in the (re)create feature page becomes too big, it shows all 3000 records. I'd like to limit the list to enabled fonts only.
- Views only checks in the database. I'm using Views for the admin interface, with previews of all fonts and a nifty jQuery navigation. I;d prefer to keep using Views in favor of Ctool UI, but I can't find a way to make Views listing DB fonts as well as Exported fonts. So that it uses ctools_export_load_object() instead of the default vhook_views_data.

Any ideas?

Sorry, Views currently only does database queries and therefore is unable to create views of exported items. The only way to make it do so would be to write an alternative query back end that could do the job. This would not be a small task.
