Not really - if anything should be improved it's how Gnus detects that a
face is variable pitch.
I was assuming it was looking at the font, and it isn't.

It uses the new pixel-fill-region stuff to wrap at the window width. It
makes sense, I think? It's better than at a fixed number of characters,
which looks haphazard for a variable pitch font.

I guess I have just configured/customized the sizes to match at some
point.
When Lars switched the modeline to variable pitch I switched my
echo-area/minibuffer to variable pitch as well; I think it looks nice
(but it was a bit of a faff to configure:
; echo-area face:
(defface echo-area
'((t (:family "DejaVu Sans Condensed")))
"Face for the echo-area")
;;; And in custom-set-faces:
;;; '(minibuffer-prompt ((t (:inherit echo-area :foreground "medium blue"))))
; This to get variable width font in the line below the modeline:
(dolist
(buf (list " *Minibuf-0*" " *Minibuf-1*" " *Echo Area 0*" " *Echo Area 1*"))
(when (get-buffer buf)
(with-current-buffer buf
(setq-local face-remapping-alist '((default (:inherit echo-area)))))))
; This as well - and minibuffer-prompt face above!
(defun my-minibuffer-setup-hook ()
(buffer-face-set 'echo-area))
(add-hook 'minibuffer-setup-hook 'my-minibuffer-setup-hook)
gathered from searches/various places :-))
Best regards,
Adam
