I din't think it's anything to do with proprtional fonts per se, but we could certainly do with some better font choices. And indeed a better manner of choosing them & setting them. The FontChooserTool is decent but the whole world-menu->appearance...->system fonts... thing is awful.

This a more than a bit amusing though since I'm in the middle watching Juan's excellent talk on Cuis & vector graphics - https://vimeo.com/532636234
