    The properties that can be set, are (in order): "font-style
    font-variant font-weight font-size/line-height font-family"

    The font-size and font-family values are required. If one of the
    other values are missing, the default values will be inserted, if
    any.

How awkward; I don't normally want to fiddle around with the font
*size*...
So what I want is "100%", presumably, to avoid altering it.
