 The global search box in the header, when focused upon, zooms in the
 entire page. This is a known feature (bug?).

 Since the wp.org website is mobile-friendly, the zoom-in is not required
 because [https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2010/03/forms-on-mobile-devices-
 modern-solutions/#field-zoom this feature is useful for non-responsive
 websites] (''whereby the zoom-in would help the user see what they're
 typing, hence an accessibility feature'').

 Applying a 16px font size to the search box fixes this issue. Here's the
 before-after shots after applying the patch.
