It depends on the use case. Of course when the document is mostly
about "dumb tables" people don't care about kerning. But as soon
as the "reading experience" becomes important the kerning has an
impact. The end reader might perhaps not really notice (or maybe
not consciously) but the client does and even more so when he is
fixed on using specific fonts, first in headlines and immediately
after in the body text.

I hope I'll be able to prepare some examples, soon, for less font-
aware people to see what a difference this makes...
