The title font has improved in its more recent revisions but too many
of the letters are shaped oddly for general use imho. The problematic
letter we bumped into most recently was lower case 'w'.

I'm using Arial Rounded MT Bold which is a harmonious (but non-free)
substitute.

Another nice rounded font that was suggested by the Web Presence team
is MgOpen Modata, and one that was recommended but which I haven't
tried is LMSansDemiCondensed Regular available in the lmodern package
in Ubuntu (part of TeX).
