Excellent, this is OK, with my selected fonts and correctly sized icons.
It still has the problem with optimalfill, so it's definitely not

Meanwhile I see that in the plasma font setting I have the dpi forced to 
96, a setting that apparently is respected both by qt4 and qt5 (as well 
as gtk applications).
