Nautilus: bug or feature? How to I fix Zoom?

[spmirowski]

Hello,

With Gnome 2.10 and later there is a new bug/feature in Nautilus, 
personally I hate it.  With the icon zoom option in icon view, it would 
only change the size of icon and not the text, now it does both. 

Nifty, but the icon's text size is also depended on application font 
size in the font panel. I like smaller icons but the fonts must stay a 
size I can read. I always set my fonts to 8pt in font panel. well, now 
if I put my icons to 75%, the icon text is unreadable.  However, if I 
raise my application fonts in the font panel, if affects all my other 
programs will have bigger fonts and take up too much screen room.

Is there a way to break this new, zoom mutual dependence by using 
Configuration Editor or some other way?
