Tom,
Overlooking for the moment the problem Dave H raised, what would the
rendering engine be aiming to do with the text when font-size was
auto? I assume this is to make the resolution independent example
you've made easier to implement, how does it help that?

Hi,
Sorry in advance if this is the wrong place/way to ask this.
I recently posted on the www-style list a proposal for allowing the
'font-size' CSS property to have a value of 'auto':
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2007Jun/0016.html
The basic idea is that when font-size: auto is used, the browser would
calculate the font-size based on the element's width margins and
padding. A javascript mockup is available at:

What I would like to know, if you can spare the time, is what you, the
webkit developers, feel about this proposal. I'm not involved in any
browser development, so I don't know the implications such a proposal
would have if is at all feasible.
Thanks for your time,
