Ability to set a default font that persists across relaunch

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Being able to set a font choice in preferences as a default
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
At the moment the default font when you create a text box is Helvetica 12pt. 
This is fine, if you want 
to use Helvetica, if not, then you need to select a font choice for every text 
box you create as you 
create them. A bit tiresome.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Version 0.0.4

Please provide any additional information below.

here are foolproof step by step instructions to set the default font:

- Choose the arrow tool
- click twice on part of the document with nothing placed there.
- at this point you should not be editing text and nothing should be selected
- choose the text tool
- hit command-t (aka apple-t) to bring up the font palette
- choose a font/size
- now any new text box will have this font as the default font

However, it's reset when you relaunch the program. This bug is to fix the 
default for when you relaunch.
