Hardcoding sizes for a randomly picked wrong DPI != strictly defining A font size is a real world unit, so "font size 8" will always be e.g. 8mm in height, whichever display you display it on. >> People will run apps on devices with misc DPI setting, misc resolutions, >> orientations etc - now I think that some apps use large fonts when normal >> ones will be OK. It's not that simple, since size and DPI are unrelated, but telling X the proper DPI and having a *sane* default for fontsizes goes a long way. > Please give concrete examples You lie about DPI, so your fontsize *are* random, no excuse is going to alter that. > and I'll look into changing that.

The reason I haven't added it in the past is the fact that you aren't going to merge it to openmoko svn in a timely fashion (before p1) and after p1 you will say something like "we can't change it now".
