(In reply to Jean-François Fortin Tam from comment #0)
> A) ...the font family and size should be set by the application (or global user preferences)
Yes, requested in bug 62150 (or more generally but maybe over-engineered in bug
103064, as comment by Uwe).

> B) The default font family & size used for comments are not optimal.
Don't see much of an issue with Liberation and would avoid shipping another
font. If A) is solved it's not a problem to set B) to your preference.

Guess removing the ability to highlight parts of the comments with font color
or weight is a regression for some users. If your co-workers are mean and
format every word differently, the only reason I can think of why rich
formatting has a negative impact on UX, we could introduce an option to clear
or hide all direct formatting in comments.

My take: duplicate of bug 62150. But it's a good topic for the design meeting.
