For preview, open the font selector, select font, type text...
It never occurred to me that anyone would want to uninstall fonts.
As for the accessible alternative to dnd install, does fonts:// have one ?
Maybe there should be an "Install this font" in the right-click menu
for font files.

Anyway, I don't want to sound negative; if somebody reimplements
fonts:// for gvfs
that would be great. I just don't think it has a high priority.
