           Summary: Text Autosizing: Upscale small inline images like
                    smileys.
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Layout and Rendering
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: johnme at chromium.org


When small images are included inline within text that gets autosized, the images aren't currently resized and so end up disproportionately small. Examples of images for which this happens:
- smileys
- sparklines
- icons indicating that clicking a link takes you to an external site

These images tend to either be included using an inline <img>, or via css e.g.:
    a.external {
        padding-right: 21px;
        background: url(external-link.png) right center no-repeat;
    }

We should try to scale up these images in proportion to the text autosizing multiplier.

The hardest part may be determining what the maximum size cut-off is at which we stop doing this. Perhaps require that the image height be <= max(font-size, line-height)?
