--- Comment #5 from Bartosz DziewoƄski <[email protected]> ---
I think using a monospace font is pretty important for "wikitext" textareas.
Trying to place the cursor next to a '[' or, even worse, a '|', in a
proportional font can be very annoying. It matters a lot less for "text"
textareas (such as the Flow ones mentioned earlier, I guess, although they also
accept wikitext input), since there tends to be fewer weirdly-sized characters
in them.

Proportional font for the entire body text is also definitely problematic when
editing a computer-science-related article with code samples, for obvious
reasons. On the other hand, editing a liberal-arts-related article with a
monospace font is a minor annoyance at worst. ;)
