How to change font size in VS Code sidebar?

Question

Querying for fontsize in User Settings window yields only settings for:

• editor panes,
• suggest widget,
• markdown preview,
• integrated terminal

as you can see below:

Doing the same for sidebar gives even poorer results:

Having fonts of different sizes in editor panes and sidebar looks... let's settle with: not too nice. Have I just found the greatest omission of this awesome tool?

Just want to add to the discussion, If you set:

"window.zoomLevel": "your number",

In my case I started with zero, you can use that as sort of a baseline:

"editor.fontSize": 14,
"editor.tabSize": 2,
"terminal.integrated.fontSize": 14,
"window.zoomLevel": 0,
"[Log]": {
  "editor.fontSize": 14
},

And then tweaked until I was happy. Hope this helps!
