Details

I use large fonts on the Windows NT desktop. Each time I download and install a new version of mozilla and configure the browser, I notice that almost all of the "preferences" dialog boxes are incorrectly displayed (lots of text is clipped, text entry boxes are blit'd offscreen, etc). This problem is easily remedied by resizing each of the affected dialog boxes to a larger geometry.
Confirming on Linux on daily builds from 9/27 to 2000100308. Initially I thought this was a problem with the classic skin, then I realized that the Modern skin just uses smaller fonts. It seems that the preferences dialog should either have a scrollbar or resize itself in those circumstances -- the default size that came up for preferences, for example, gave me no hint that there was a "Toolbars" section in the "Navigator" preferences.
