\showbodyfont & \showbodyfontenvironment display details about a single
font. Which command lists or otherwise identifies fonts available for use on
a Tex Live MKII system? I want to find out what fonts have been loaded onto
my system. These would most likely be the standard fonts included with the
on-line download. The documentation shows me how to load additional fonts
but I don't yet know what is there by default.

There is nothing like that, because a command would not know where to 
start searching for installed fonts: it can hardly try all font names
out in the wild just to see which ones exist.

But the new reference manual chapter on fonts has a (perhaps slightly
outdated) list of available typescripts for mkii. You can try those
and see which ones work. The chapter is here:

Best wishes,
Taco
