The Text font defaults to the QApplication::font(), which defaults to the system font.

It's perfectly reasonable to "subclass" Text in QML. eg. you might make HeaderText.qml that is simply:

  import Qt 4.7
  Text { font.pixelSize: 20 }

It would be unusual for an application to use just one font and yet for that not to be the system default font. An application will more usually have a few different types of text and so have a couple of subclasses for those that are not the system font.
