The entire thing is the patch (the uncommented version is the most recent 
revision - I should have changed the comment, and didn't at the time, sorry.)

Nothing was changed between 3.0 and 3.1.  The change from specifying a font 
(and therefore making it non-customizable) to not specifying a font (and 
therefore using the one configured for Konqueror in KControl center) was made 
14 months ago, before 2.2.1 was released, and has not been touched since.

For 3.2 there will probably be a GUI to write some font rules into the 
kde-localized.css file, on a per user basis, to allow for easier 
customization.
