If we change the default font then in all apps, yes. And Source Pro is really 
nice, without prefering it over the other cadidates. 
However I'm in the interoperability camp. Changing font that potentially 
affects existing documents and leads to inconsitencies in competing products 
is not user friedly. Unless we ask for confirmation to update the font. I have 
a dialog in mind that tells the user what's new and asks for confirmation to 
updated options (we had the same issue for the menu configuration that couldn't 
be overridden when individualized).
