#1046: mozilla dpi setting breaks google maps

 The mozilla dpi setting scales images as well as text, which causes
 problems in web pages that make assumptions based on image sizes.  For
 instance, google maps centers the map indicator inside its frame, but
 since the image are scaled it ends up outside the screen.  (It's hard to
 describe, but just go there and you'll see what I mean.)

 Maybe this is google being broken, but we're going to have to deal with
 it.

 Personally I think we should scale the text, but not the images.
