Ask Emacs about the pixel-height of the text, then compute the scale you
need to make that the same as the pixel-height of the window's body.

Caveat: when you change the font size, some lines could take more or fewer
lines on the screen (due to wrapping) and disrupt your calculations.
Dealing with that is left as an exercise.
