It picks up the main UI font, rather than the Query Tool font (which
is used by ctlSQLBox). I'm not sure that's the appropriate behaviour.
It also forces it to bold, because that's how the column/row headers
are shown.

We'd also need to ensure it also affects the edit grid, and other
grids we may be using such as those on the debugger.
