IIUC from reading source, we are working against the font metric's hhea or typo
values, so that would be matched our 100, aka 1.00 multiplier--but not a dev

Yes that is the issue here--we multiply the font's line spacing, not its
effective point size. So the generalized "Western" typography guidelines are
really not appropriate--and to my mind cause problems with use of well designed
fonts.</pre>
