Bug description:
  I have a high DPI screen, and thus configured Unity to scale
  everything by a factor of 1.62 (Under Settings -> Display). Sometimes
  after logging in the text is suddenly much larger than before, and
  this change persists even after reboot. I was able to get back normal
  font sizes by modifying text scaling in unity tweak.

  I'd have to look at this again the next time this happens, but if I
  understand this correctly then sometimes the scaling factor is re-
  applied to the text scaling in cases where it was already applied
  before, thus scaling the text by 1.62*1.62 instead of only 1.62 as it
  should be.
