It's a very bad idea from where I sit.

The PTV is set to Courier New, which I like for texts in Latin
letters, like English. Thai letters look horrible in it.

The RTV is set to AngsanaUPS, which I like for texts in Thai. I looks
very ugly when displaying texts in English.

The fact that I couldn't make the PTV to display a different font from
the RTV made me downgrade back to 4.0.0.6. The loss of the
flexibility of easily changing the font is a show-stopper for me.

I thought making MicroEd UTF-aware would enable me to display
UTF-encoded messages in the PTV. That would have been a real
improvement over having to view them in the RTV! I grudgingly accepted
viewing them in the RTV, waiting for the improvement. Now it's even
worse: Even non-UTF encoded message are displayed in AngsanaUPC. No
good at all.
