You must keep in mind that the toolkit isn't only being used for new development. Some of us have to use it to create browser front ends to 10 year old Windows applications. I don't have a choice, the font information I'm getting is in points. On the server side I simply divided all font sizes by .72 and the fonts are about as close as I can get for a general fix. At least it's good enough for the customer.

Thanks for confirming my suspicion.

All sizes in qooxdoo are in pixels. In my opinion points are only used
historically. But they are only useful when designing something for
print. This is because the size of points on the screen generally
differs between the operating systems and browsers. There is no
possibility to switch to points.
