OK, that's the "QFont::pointSize() returns -1 when setting a pixelsize" issue,
which I already mentionned, and which needs a fix in KConfig or in KGlobalSettings.
I suggested a simple fix but Dirk mentionned a bigger cleanup needed...
I'm not too sure about what we should do here, so I'd be glad if Dirk or anyone
else with knowledge of this font size stuff, could provide some input ;-)

That's perfectly normal, it's the WYSIWYG implementation.
