@Daniel:

I think font hinting is disabled by default for QML Text elements, because Text uses distance fields rendering by default (more info at http://blog.qt.io/blog/2011/07/15/text-rendering-in-the-qml-scene-graph/ )

That was changed in the Label component of our UI toolkit so that it uses "NativeRendering" when the Grid Unit is <= 10, distance fields otherwise. See comment #19.

So that could potentially be fixed by using Label instead of the standard QML Text in indicators/dash/etc
