<pre>I'll go ahead and throw in my opinion on the other issues.
It seems to me that nothing can be done about other fonts need more or less
line spacing, and not just because of the current implementation. This is
because (1) in principle the amount of spacing needed can vary wildly depending
on the font, and (2) some fonts seem to low-ball the single line spacing while
others include plenty. In other words, whether you use a percentage of the
point size or a percentage of the line height, it would still be wrong for most
fonts, even just restricting things to Latin fonts.
This being the case, I think that either (1) text body should be set to
single/100% spacing and let Liberation Serif will be a bit tight, or (2) both
text body and the dropdown option should be 115% (or 110% if it's decided that
115% is too much) and accept that it will be necessary to change the text body
line spacing if you change the font. But I think it would be bad to set text
body to 108% (or whatever) and the dropdown to something else, because that
would be confusing to novice users.</pre>
