Iirc, we did some back and forth over that about 18 months ago, as
dialogues didn't look quite right without the bold - and I do think that it
looks a little light on your mockup. I don't think there's a hard
requirement they match table headers; they are distinct types of header.

Happy to try out change though if you can workup one or more suggested
patches.
