Public bug reported:

I am on Ubuntu 12.10 Quantal 64bit.

System settings -> Universal Access -> View gives the user(possible view
impaired one) the opportunity to adjust the system wide text size.

Good thing!

But the standard programs like Firefox or LibreOffice are not adjusted
by this central settings as far as their menues are affected.

So, the user experience for view impaired users is that they have to
bring their heads everytime they start to use one of this standard
programs direct to the screen and search for the menue zoom settings in
those programs, which is a strange task for them.

Expected:

With the Universal Access -> View text size settings it should be
possible to adjust also the menu size in the not canonical standard
program in the unity launcher panel, which are Firefox and LibreOffice.
