Wait!  I found a way, and it's even very customizable :)  It's actually
the way to override specific fonts, and basically is the same we do for
existing font overrides.

Instead of setting the "gtk-font-name" setting, override the specific
widgets fonts:

For all GTK applications:

```
style "custom-font" {
	font_name = "Sans 16"
}
widget_class "<GtkWindow>.*" style "custom-font"
```

or for Geany only:

```
style "custom-font" {
	font_name = "Sans 16"
}
widget "GeanyMainWindow.*" style "custom-font"
widget "Geany*Dialog*.*" style "custom-font"
```

The first applies to everything inside a GTK window (e.g. everything of
every GTK applications), and the second only to Geany main window and
dialogs.  Unless you have other GTK using applications that you don't
wanna change, I suggest you use the first solution that is a little
simpler will more easily adapt to e.g. windows created by plugins.

And of course, customize the "font_name" as you like.

Hope this one works (did here).
