Note for whoever wants to tackle this issue: the gnome font settings are stored in the following gconf keys:

Application font: /desktop/gnome/interface/font_name
Document font: /desktop/gnome/interface/document_font_name
Desktop font: /apps/nautilus/preferences/desktop_font

Retrieving those values is as simple as:

    import gconf
    gconf.client_get_default().get_string('/desktop/gnome/interface/font_name')

A complete patch should monitor those values to refresh the templates in Software Center upon changes.
