Heh. I've encountered similar problem in Kexi's property editor 
(KexiMainWindowImpl::initPropertyEditor()). We wanted the font to be "minimal 
readable".

I am scaling using pixelSize(), not pointSize() since the latter is not 
portable between different screen sizes. I am storing the setting in kexi's rc 
file.

My hope is that one day we can have "minimal readable" font setting as global 
KDE setting.

Regarding Krita:  I can see it has problems with too many tabs in its dock 
windows. What about reusing property editor for most settings there? 
(KProperty lib will be available for such purposes, with custom editors, 
including sliders).
