Mockup showing proposed font adjustments

Adjust font sizes on the feedback page (and other parts of the extension) to
address recommendations below, written by Pau Giner. See also attached mockups.

"The proposed changes to match the size of the left-menu and increase the line
height for post content are indicated at
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/30377416/prototypes/feedback-tool/article-feedback/font-adjustments.png

The most relevant changes are that (a) I modified the body text to 0.75em (the
default in Wikipedia) and (b) increased the line length for post content.
I include a comparison of large comments (where line-height can be
appreciated). These are independent changes, so if you prefer bigger text for
the post we can still increase the line height to increase readability.

...

It should be taken into account that the em measures are affected by the parent
elements of each node. For example, if I include a 2em element into a 0.5em
container, the resulting font size is equivalent to 1em.

In the prototype the body font size has been set to 0.8em, and this implies
that a 20% reduction will be applied to any other em-based measure in the
document. For example, the sub-title "250 feedback posts on this article" that
is set to 1.2em instead of being translated to 19px (as stated in the spec), is
translated to 18px due to the body font reduction. 

This difference is not a big issue (just one pixel in this case), but it should
be made clear in the specification whether these ems should be computed
considering the body font size reduction or not. At the moment I have indicated
the specific em to be applied to each final element including the resulting
size in pixels. But I want to be sure that this is the way that best helps
developers before we indicate sizes for each single element."
