User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.0.12) Gecko/2009071200 SUSE/3.0.12-0.1.2 Firefox/3.0.12
Build Identifier: I20080617-2000

There are text elements in the GUI whose size depends on the font of their contents.  These elements are not resized when the font changes.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start debugging something, and make sure the "Variables" view is visible and has some contents.
2. Change the font size in the "Variables" view to something large.  Window -> Preferences -> General -> Appearance -> Colors and Fonts -> Debug -> Variable text font, then click "Change...".
3. Hit okay.  Observe that, while the font is bigger, the text doesn't "fit" properly, so that each variable is partly obscured by the boundaries of its element.
