Bug Description

I have a UHD monitor, and I used the "Display" setting to bump text scaling up to 1.5.

The top level system settings app with icons for all the individual settings now uses the new text size, but truncates all the labels because it refuses to resize. In fact, it won't let me grab a corner and manually resize.

This is on a new install of 14.04 with all updates applied.
