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.

Just a few thoughts.
