Applying a custom font-size to all values exposed inside //*[@id="advancedFonts"] of about:preferences#general does not modify font.size.monospace.x-unicode, meaning that, in an HTML5 document, I if I set lang= to one of BCP 47's special-purpose language tags inherited from ISO 639-3 (mis, und, or zxx), the font size preference is not adhered to.

This isn't intuitive, and is outside of the user's control, despite significantly affecting accessibility.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Layout: Text and Fonts' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

I can't reproduce this. If I go to the Advanced font settings, choose Other Writing Systems, and change the Monospace font size, I see this reflected in font.size.monospace.x-unicode as expected.

...Embarrassingly, I didn't know that that option existed. My apologies.
