Bug Description

The titlebar-font appears to small in window titlebars, application menu and indicators. Since all other fonts are consider the global scaling factor automatically, the individual font sizes should not need to be changed.
In the screenshot I have org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences.titlebar-font="Ubuntu Bold 11" (the default).
When I change it to "Ubuntu Bold 22", most titlebars and the application title in the panel show the (originally) expected font size, but the application menu and indicators still show too small text.

org.gnome.desktop.interface.scaling-factor = 2
org.gnome.desktop.interface.text-scaling-factor = 1.0
org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences.titlebar-font="Ubuntu Bold 11"

FYI, we won't probably use the org.gnome.desktop.interface.scaling-factor value directly.
