No, with colorschemes, you just change one file and it applies to every 
filetype. It makes no sense to have some parts of the (font) styling 
like colours and bold and italics specified in the color schemes while 
other parts like the font face and size to be specified through the UI.

The *best* thing would be to have the color schemes be editable through 
the GUI (like TextMate, for example), but this is substantially more work.

If you could set the font face and size through the colour scheme, you 
could leave the GUI setting as a global/default that takes effect if not 
specified elsewhere (ie. in the color schemes).
