I think this could be done in the v7.1 Mid-Tier with a custom CSS for the field. I also think the v6.3's Mid-Tier could also be customized (with more effort, but in a similar way) too.
However for the User Tool I think we are out of luck for the kind of specific (single field) font change. However, as a form of workarounds... ) Maybe the text could be converted to a View field and displayed with specific font settings in that display. It may not be trivial to implement, but I think it could be done. ) Another approach would be to give the users a "report" button that would preview the field's content. So that the effort the user needs to take to see the fixed width content is reduced to a single button click.
