I agree that this feature is nice, but I'm unclear on what you expect this to 
do in a file (format).
A boolean like this can imply that the reading-application must shrink it from 
the saved fontsize to a smaller font size. Or apply horizontal or vertical 
scaling.
Last meaning (the one which I hope you mean) can be that its just a way to 
persist a config option for that shape which is used by the application when 
the user alters the shape or the text.  And the application will then scale 
the text/etc and store the new fontsize in the file.

Could you clarify?
