Vscode: [themes] [syntax highlighting] allow theme to change font size, line height, negative indent

[buckle2000]

What

Code should allow custom themes to

• specify font-size, line-height, text-variant and etc. for every line
• specify font-size, font-stretch and etc. for inline elements

Why

When you write markdown in current's VS code, the h1-h6 lines are the same size as the body text. This is not very helpful in terms of writing.

This is editing Markdown in Code (for now):

note that the title is less prominent than the bold text.

In contrast, this is editing Markdown in Bear:

We also need to resolve #20652 for this to work.

This may be closed but it would be very useful and not particularly hard to implement considering it's all just html and CSS rendering.
The justification that it is out of vscode design spec is silly. Vscode is steadily evolving into a platform for many different extensions much like Emacs. It is already far beyond a text editor and arbitrarily saying some things are and are not within its scope is silly.
