Tab View is currently using the font Tahoma, which is the native system font for Windows XP. On Windows 7 and Vista, this causes the UI to feel old and strange, but it is otherwise hard for users to qualify what exactly is wrong.

Note that Tahoma also appears in the Pinstripe theme, but we never see it because Tahoma doesn't exist on the Mac (except if you really want that retro feel and you've installed it yourself)... at any rate, that should be removed as well; just leave it with sans-serif on the Mac, unless we've got a standard "Firefox UI" font we should be using instead.

DOMi shows -moz-use-system-font as the value of things like the location bar text. Perhaps that's what we should use.
