--- Comment #14 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Not clear how the .UI's <lower> -2 entry [1] is actually applied. As font size
increases the reduced spacing is increased proportionally. So it is not an
absolute -2 point unit. It is being scaled.

That handling needs to be understood before simply increasing the minimum value
in the UI spinbox. Concern would be what happens to smaller font sizes when the
negative Spacing is set larger than the font size? Will it happily just compose
each glyph on top of the preceeding--or will it crash?
