I've long wondered why OmniFocus used Helvetica as the default. Perhaps a carry-over from OmniOutliner?

Don't get me wrong, I love Helvetica. But, as CatOne pointed out, Lucida Grande is the default system font used in all of Apple's sidebars and lists, and in the vast majority of third-party apps too. AFAIK, Apple only uses Helvetica in Leopard's Stacks feature and as the default typeface for user content (e.g. in TextEdit, Mail, etc.). Although, Helvetica is heavily used in the iPhone OS.

I had gotten so used to Helvetica in OmniFocus that it was a bit jarring to see Lucida Grande at first, but I must admit it's growing on me now. I'm liking a lot of the 1.7 changes. Keep 'em coming OG!
