Yes, well.. the problem is that we have no way to select such a font in the 
GUI :-( It shouldn't be a problem to make it possible to define such a "raw" 
font as custom font though, either via a command line option or via e.g. a 
Font= entry in the .desktop file that describe the session types.

Do you think you could make a patch for that?
