REVISION SUMMARY Many users seem to like using Force Fonts DPI or (less commonly) the font sizes to increase the scale of UI elememnts to suit their screen. This is not the recommended approach, and we are constantly telling users this in bug reports and social media, but there's nothing in the UI itself to make people aware of that in the first place. This patch is an attempt to rectify that by showing gentle informational messages guiding users towards the KScreen KCM if they adjust settings on the Fonts KCM in a way that suggests they are trying to make everything bigger.
