Or have RB implement something like CSS in HTML; then a separate style sheet could be used for OS X, Win32, and Linux, to give each app a customizable appearance according to the HI guidelines for that platform. This should of course, affect the 'alignment grid' as well as the default font/font-size when you create a new window (and - since it's just a text file (either HTML or XML), you can edit it if you want a different default font, font size, or alignment guidelines to apply!)
