We set the font size based on preferences, IIRC - and we use the same
prefs for desktop and mobile (that's not just laziness - that allows me to
set up the proxy with the desktop version and then have the mobile version
built on the same system use those settings).

Could that be what causes the problem?

But that brings us back to the odd sizing of the three buttons on my
Nexus 7 - does the relative sizing between fonts and buttons on that seem
different?
