It might be worth to check the impact of this change on memory
footprint; iirc, PangoGlyphString takes up around 24 bytes per glyph.
Also, I think with the upcoming Cairo graphics class, it would be worth
to investigate whether zooming could be done via transforms rather than
via the font-size hack.
