(Firefox :: Settings UI, enhancement)

Description

[I. M. Bur]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030728 Mozilla Firebird/0.6.1

If a user opens a link in a new tab (or new window), there should be an option
to keep the text size (set by Ctrl++ and Ctrl+-) of the originating page. If the
user has changed the text size, there is a good chance he wants to keep it on
the next page he goes to.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open any site with a link on it.
2. Increase/decrease text size (Ctrl++ or Ctrl+-) a few times.
3. Open the link in a new tab (or in a new window).

Actual Results:  
Text in the new tab/window is default size.

Expected Results:  
Text of the new tab/window should be same size as the originating tab/window.
