I understand the metrics, and difficulties in 'too small' in modern computing. My only issue is that whatever function does the badge sizing is allowing metrics which render the badge unreadable.
I would have thought there are other locations where text is sized according to graphical elements successfully. Nautilus file manager? With that respect it might be simpler to have someone familiar with these issues to fix? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.

This has been a bug since 14.04 and persists through 15.04. There should be a minimum size for badges so that they are always readable.
