"Used to" is wrong at least until Gnome 2.20.2 (Fedora 8).
I've just
tried setting via appearances caplet font size to 8.5. No problem. Only
you have to set in manually in the font picker (more specifically in the
"size" labelled entry), but gnome accepts it.
My question had two parts. Neither of you addressed part two at all, and you
only half addressed part one. What apps (not DTEs) will display discrete
sizes regardless of DPI for 7.2pt, 7.7pt, 8pt, 8.3pt, 8.6pt, 9pt, 9.5pt,
etc.?
