Screenshot with Chinese UI

I know nothing about UI design, but I'd like to mention that in simplified
Chinese typesetting and publishing at least (most likely also traditional
Chinese, maybe Japanese as well), the font size is not described in point (pt)
numbers.  The Chinese rather use its own system, which LO adopts, and provides
a rough conversion to and from the point system.

In this Chinese system the sizes are just called "Size <n>", with n ranging
from 0 to 8, and with "Size <n> Minus" in between numbers.  The default font
size in Writer for Chinese UI is "Size Five", which translates to 10.5 pt for
English UI.  I've attached a screenshot of how .uno.FontHeight dropdown list
looks in Chinese UI.

I hope the developers can have this in mind when they change the UI, or provide
a fallback to the old dropdown list that Chinese users can use.  Thanks.
