This is a vague recollection of things read/done on
css. Instead of setting the font size in pixels, you
"should" use em units.  The most common approach is
the following:

BODY {
font-size: 62.5%;
}

This makes 16px = 10px and so now:
0.8 em = 8 px
1 em = 10px
1.2 em = 12 px
1.4 em = 14 px

and so forth.  em instead of pixels is used because
IE/Win doesn't allow the user to resize text that is
set in px.  This may or may not have been
fixed/changed in IE7, but it's a much easier
convention to apply consistently than is pixels.
