I tried this, and the mode-line looks much nicer indeed,
but this improvement is unusable because the mode-line jumps
left and right when the buffer is saved, the cursor is moved, etc.
Is it possible to leave monospaced fonts on parts of the mode-line
that change often (mode-line-modified, mode-line-position),
and put variable-pitch only on parts of the mode-line that don't
change often (mode-line-buffer-identification, mode-line-modes…)
