If a user wants to increase the font size it is most likely because they
can't read the text at the font size specified by the author. IE is the
only browser that doesn't let user's easily resize the text on the page
when the author uses a unit that isn't relative to the default font size.

The solution is to fix the design so that the height of the container
increases with the font size.
