I've been using Source Sans Pro (not Source Code, the mono variant) and Fira Sans for quite a while
in different editors as proportional, sans-serif code fonts. The work very well.

If we had ligatures, I think proper := is doable in any of these, and if we want to go all in,
we can change these open source fonts to auto-mazing-ly replace them by left-arrow; and that visually
only.
