Measuring Text Size (Needs to Scale?)

The measuring text when using the measuring tool needs to scale better on zoom if we can. In modern/future RPGs like Deathwatch where guns have 200m range its impossible to measure accurately. If you zoom in you can see it fine but have very small measuring capability as seen below: But zoom out and use the same tool and you can't see anything: Sure would be nice if this scaled up in size with zoom level.

I think the original post about this was about a year or so ago so it is something that is definitely known. If it is kept on their radar with people asking about it, it will be looked at and worked (hopefully).
I'm one of those who like big maps, and I constantly run up against this issue. So +1 from me.
Even if they didn't scale the size, another possible solution is to have another output that is of constant size next to the tool itself on the toolbar on the left. Somewhat like how there is the slider for zoom, and the zoom tool.
