Yep, that's by design. The text shrinks because we don't want it filling more lines (and it looks kind of ugly to have big text over many lines).
This is happening with the new design as well, though to a lesser extent because the titles have more horizontal space. The second line is squeezed a little closer to the first line, too. people. ubuntu. com/~dylanmccal l/ubiquity- slideshow- ubuntu/ preview- maverick/

For the time being, we can't do much about the offending strings; the slideshow you see is for Lucid. We can definitely work on this for Maverick if it's important. Probably the best way is to leave a note with the respective translation teams to let them know when their strings are a bit too long. They may be able to shorten them.
