I must clarify: ideally, the size of all the UI elements *should* depend on the 
base font size, but currently does not (and I don't know exactly how to make it 
so).

And apparently I am wrong about saying that only TextArea has the issue.  Here 
is a screenshot of an app with the root font size set at 50%, and combo box at 
200%:

It does not look right either, the UI elements should not get scaled in my 
opinion, only the text.  I'd rather have a consistent size of UI elements in an 
application.
