Thanks for caring!

> Does this happen for all fonts?

To the extreme extent shown in the screenshots it happens to just a subset of the web-fonts I checked. But sometimes I do use fonts where it happens to that extreme extent, and for these cases it would be really great to have some (nice and quick to use) solution. It should be as easy as adding one line of CSS, without having to get the font metrics, for example 😀

> Do you get better results with line-height: normal or with less mixing of units?

Here's a version with line-height:normal and only em units (both regarding the h1):
