Question Adobe Cc Font Classification?

In the newer Illustrator CC fonts can be sorted by Classification, similarity, etc easily through the drop down menu.
See this link: Fonts in Illustrator

Anyways, it just automatically sorts the fonts you have installed and classifies them into its own pre-determined groups. However, some fonts aren't classified correctly. I would also like to add my own classification groups. ie firefighter, police, industrial, etc. Is this possible? I cannot see any way to manually edit these aspects.

It is probably some internal programming. Have you tried doing the same thing in a font organizing program such as Font Explorer?

I have categories for Inline fonts, casual scripts, fancy scripts, cartoon, athletic, etc. I also have a set called Forget Script, Forget Sans. There are certain fonts that I always seem to forget their names so I categorize them that way.

Here is a screen capture of my program

@VecDoc, I have used similar programs before. I will have to give that particular one a try sometime though.
However, this is not what I am wanting to do, since it appears Adobe has integrated something very similar into Illustrator already, I was wondering if it had an interface that I am missing.
