Interesting -- I hadn't played with stylesheets for Qt widgets yet. KDE 4 will 
have a smallestReadableFont setting which we can plug in here -- the big 
issue is, what will removing the margins and padding do to the various 
styles? I couldn't find out whether it was possible to force a certain QStyle 
of KStyle on a widget using a stylesheet, but that could help, too.
