[Bug 252640] Re: [wishlist] Needs font size/selection

 

I really don't think it is a good idea to include a application specific
override for the font settings.  It is important to have a consistent
experience across the desktop.  I think if a user prefers a smaller
font, they probably really want that smaller font across all
applications on the desktop.  Adding the complexity of another setting,
which really just introduces inconsistency, would just make things more
confusing.

Perhaps if there needs to be a different font setting for a different
class of content, we should look at solving that desktop wide.

Bug description:
  It would be nice if gwibber had some app specific font settings. Right
  now it appears to follow my desktop setting but it would be nice to
  select a smaller font, etc.
