This is a user question, and belongs on the user list, not the developer list. I've cc'd this reply there, but you'll need to subscribe if you haven't already.

Reports are displayed using a built-in version of Webkit, so Pango isn't involved. I'll have to research a bit to see how to change fonts there.

Rather than setting a pango alias it would probably be cleaner to set your default font in Resources/etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc (you'll have to add the file).
