Text input font when renaming files can't resize.

Bug description

In "list with details" view the panel content can be resized by pressing CTRL together with "+".
Not like in other views, in "list with details" view not only icons, but also text is being resized, and that's great - all views should have resizable fonts.

Unfortunately, if you want to rename one of the files - the list element is temporarily changed to text input element, and then the font size is not sized to match the size of fonts in the list.
So if I scroll the font's to see better - when I want to rename - I can't see what I'm typing in.

Steps to reproduce

1. Change panel to view - "list with details".
2. Use CTRL with + or CTRL with mouse wheel to get list entries bigger.
3. Select one of files and select from context menu "rename" option
4. You will see that editable text changed size to default font size - that's the BUG.

Expected behavior

Font size while renaming should match actual text size in the panel.

The workaround is instead of scaling list view, to change default font size in Fonts settings.

This will change font size also in all locations where default font is used, but it's not that bad.

BTW. Fonts settings seems to be messed up in the whole Cinnamon Desktop (or gtk/gnome) - I did try Caja from Mate Desktop and it was exactly the same problem as in Nemo - also text input size not resized with window content.

And where it should be reported in that case? This issue is related to file managers, but it looks it's caused by some library which generates text input boxes.
