Description
The text inside single-line text fields (including fields for URLs and so forth) is the normal sans-serif site font. Text inside multi-line text boxes, however, is a much wider monospace font that isn't found anywhere else in the site. The text entry font should be consistent (and, IMHO, should be standardized on the normal sans-serif that appears everywhere else).
Go to the Edit Profile page for an example (website field v. bio field); I also noticed in on the Edit Picture page (title field v. description field).
Confirmed in both Firefox and Chromium on Ubuntu 10.04. This ought to be a pretty easy bug to squash.

So I've been looking for a decent typeface to use for our regular ol' body text. But before we find something we can at least get everything to look consistent, I agree.
If I weren't leaving tomorrow, I'd assign this to myself. Anyone, feel free to pick this up. If this ticket isn't done at the end of the month, I'll pick it up and fix it before the next release.
