Hello,
Since I'm the one who implemented the pango support I find myself responsible!
The font used by pango is the same one you assign in the configuration file.
I didn't remove xft entirely as I'm not an expert with pango and I wasn't really able to get all the info required by openbox for drawing using pango only.

I'll try to compile the release and have a look, Maybe I can do something ;-)
