HI Bob,

In my testing, all font-related= settings get ignored when running in terminal mode, except for the colors.=

I have a Very Big Use Case here: on my Android devices I run
Termux, which runs nearly everything perfectly but only in
terminal mode. I run Emacs/org-mode this way on my Android
tablet all the time when out of the house or traveling.

The mixed pitch idea has great merit, don't get me wrong, and
would be a very nice thing indeed on my native Linux
devices. But I'd hope there would be no "unintended
consequences" for terminal users.
