Any reason why this would be set to true by default (assuming it is set
to true by default and not an old key left over in my setup)?  I'm all
for simplicity and the HIG and everything, but it seems a bit strange to
have the different font settings there and you can change all but one,
with no explanation or clue as to why or how to set it so you can
change.  

Assuming it's not just my system, would this be something to bring up on
the usability list or just bug it?  Also, how can I find out if it's on
or off by default?

TIA
