--- Comment #7 from Michael Catanzaro <mcatanzaro at igalia.com> ---
I found a good summary of this issue that I wrote in a different bug, https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=774248#c18:

"WebKit requires applications compute text size manually based on the size of the monitor and pixel density. I wish I were kidding, but we just copy/paste the same 100 lines of code to do this among a bunch of different GNOME apps; each new app that uses WebKit doesn't know to do this and is broken until we figure it out, and it's easier to copy/paste than spend a day fixing WebKit and writing layout tests for it."
