That's true, but is also the case today (in huge files). I think the
only way to see whether it's annoying or not is to try it out on people
and see what they say.

Ditto.

All the ones that display numbers (and don't change between numbers and
non-numerical data) aren't affected in any reasonable font.

I think we should just gather some feedback first and see what's
annoying and what isn't. I've now used this for hours :-), and the only
thing I've noticed being even remotely odd is the U:** switching to
U:--, which takes much less space and draws the eye.
