 The backend looks great in FF if a user zooms, as long as they don't zoom
 text only. However, some visually disabled people use the Firefox
 preference for minimum font size instead, because doing full zoom means
 lots of horizontal scrolling. Is there anyway to make it so that a large
 minimum text size wouldn't be so terrible-looking?

 To reproduce: in FF, go to Preferences, Content, Advanced Fonts, select 24
 for minimum size. Look at the admin; eek! (In comparison, zooming to that
 size looks very pretty, but requires horizontal scrolling).

 Gmail does it decently, so I thought it was worth asking, but I know that
 there may be technical reasons that we can't make it happen. Would just
 like to know what those are if so, so I can explain to users who ask about
 it. If we *can* make it happen, that would be sweet.
