Go to http://robnyman.github.com/matchmedia/then rotate the screen. Look at how some of the text gets a lot smaller than the other, although the same size is specified. Tested on Galaxy Nexus in Firefox beta and Aurora.
Font inflation bug; doesn't happen if font inflation is turned off ("Text Size" -> "Tiny" in settings).

Regression from bug 747231? Robert, can you verify that you're in the latest version of Aurora please?
Yes, latest Aurora as of June 5th (no Android device currently available that I can test on).
This is expected behavior with font inflation. The goal is to make sure the text is readable without side-to-side scrolling given the device width, and the device width changes when you rotate.

Well, the way font inflation worked when I posted this, it changed some of the text but not all of the related text. Seems more consistent now, though.
