One improvement I would suggest is to not round up the value, or at least not up to 2 decimal places. You can see from the source code on <a href="http://www.alistapart.com/d/howtosizetextincss/complexexample.html" rel="nofollow">an example</a> using ems to maintain the same line-height for all elements on a page the em value can reach up to 4 decimal places.

Maybe you can change the color and place the box at the center of the screen to make it more noticeable and just enable dragging. Other than that excellent script, this will be very handy for CSS development. For a moment I thought nothing was happening until I noticed the dark brown box at the top left corner.
