[Bug 36251] Re: Unreadable Font Size for GDM Login/Password

Kenneth, then why are the default font sizes after login in pixels
rather than cm/inches? And why do all other elements on the login screen
(including the login box border itself) have fixed pixel sizes? The
login box font seems to be the only thing that is relative to something,
and it goes wrong very often.

I would fix this by using a fixed pixel size that looks ok for 90-150
dpi, and would keep the perfect academic solution for a later  date when
the whole GUI is capable of measuring cm/inches rather than pixels.
