The text scaling factor setting is highly undesireable. Neighter Mozilla apps or QT apps are respecting it. So with this change you'll get smaller/bigger fonts on the desktop, but Skype, Guitar Pro and Firefox will remain intact. This will make user to search "changing Firefox font size in Ubuntu" and lead to zero results. I think I should remove text scaling factor from my app.
I think that resolve the problem with the text-scaling-factor is not
suitable like "remove the setting for don't have any problem". If you
allow me the _expression_, that's coward.
If Firefox, Skype, Guitar Pro, whatever app don't respect the default
font size for the system is the main error on that apps and Ubuntu would
enforce to use the global setting or custom setting for the app. That's
is a expected behaviour for the common user.
Settings are needed, if you remove each setting when you find a
design/programmer problem we find a spartan Ubuntu for the incoming
years that it forget the main reason for the desktop that is
customization.
