Bad font for revealed passwords and notes #10277

Description

Overview

KeePassXC does not use the system preference fixed pitch font to display its fixed pitch password and notes fields.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. navigate to an entry (with password and notes)
  2. reveal its password

Expected Behavior

Password and notes should be easily readable - my use case is copying down some of that information into an authentication device.
Ideally, there should be a setting or at least config file entry to choose a specific font, for those fields only. In lieu of that, at least the system fixed font preference should be honored.

Actual Behavior

Both the revealed password and the notes field are rendered in a font that I find particularly small and hard to read. Changing the system wide fixed font does not affect this:

(I've quit and restarted KeePassXC right before taking this screenshot.)
