How much is 'auto' and is this a textRate useful for the user? I think, poor implementors are left alone with the problem, how to determine a sufficient textRate if only 'auto' is possible and values in px are not useful for authors/users as already explained. A better approach was already provided in the original comment. A better solution for authors with this problem might be to use SVG (animation and defining font-size; zooming for users) instead of SMIL to avoid the problem (not perfect, but maybe a more advanced and flexible approach).
