176138 - Wrong default font in Page Source of Composer window

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Core :: Internationalization, defect)

Description

[Yuying Long]

Build: 10-22 trunk and branch build

Steps to reproduce:
1. Find a non-English system,launch browser by a new profile.
2. Don't change any language setting in Peferences.
3. Open Composer window and view page source.

Result:
You will find the font in page source of composer window is not western font
even though the default charset is set to iso-8859-1.  Seems the font display
following by system locale, e.g. in a Japanese system/locale, the font face
display as Janpanese font, in a English system the font face display as western
font...

Browser Page source window doesn't has this problem.

Here is my guess. Inside our composer, we always use unicode as internal
charset. For unicode charset, we use system charset to determine the font. I am
not sure if we want to change this.

Just for info.: The font is followed the document charset in browser window page
source window.

In N6.23, the font in Composer page source has same behavior as in browser page
source - in document charset font, in another word, this was introduced after N6.23.
