Scaling sub-pixel fonts

http://codedread.com/browser-tests/subpixel.svg

Just want to confirm that there should be two tiny words on this page.

1) Firefox 3.6 and IE9 display both words the same sizes as expected
2) WebKit has a bug with font sizes below 0.5px (displaying the 0.4999px
text larger)
3) Opera fails to display either words

As usual, it's disturbing to find such a basic test not exhibiting
cross-browser consistency at this stage of SVG deployment, but thankfully
there are at least two implementations in this case :-/

Is there a test to cover this in the suite?

Thanks,
Jeff Schiller
