Would you consider adding — possibly via a check box or radio button… an option such as 'use system font' — i.e. the font-family and font-size defined for all the applications that run on your desktop. And keep the calibre-specific UI font setting as some kind of escape hatch in case the desktop-wide setting is unsatisfactory?
IOW —
1. Check the box that says you want to use the font specified via gnome or kde settings. Cycle calibre and you're done.
2. Uncheck the box. Gives you access to the setting that lets you set a specific font & font-size that overrides the gnome/kde setting.
Naturally the 'use system font' could be the default so new users … users who install a new system… switch to a different desktop… etc. are automatically presented with a UI that uses the same font & font-size as their other applications.
Or is there a technical issue with this that I am unaware of that would cause undesirable effects or even make this approach impossible?
