Default fonts in Firefox

Bug 7196 complains that the fonts in Firefox are ugly.

I agree and my current plan is to make at least the following changes
to the default Firefox profile:

 * Use sans-serif fonts, rather than serif fonts, when the
   website doesn't specify.

 * Set minimum font size to 11 (one less than the default size of 12).

There is room for discussion about whether we should also change the
default font chosen for each of sans and serif.

This is your chance to have a large flamewar about a trivial matter.

Ian.
