    I also have two monitors, and both are set for 96dpi

    I also have a dual monitor setup. I checked both monitors, and both were set at 96 dpi already.

    Sorry to hear that you are still having the issue. Try this on a different computer. If that works it would mean that something is different on your computer.

    Try it in a different firefox profile. If that works there something wrong with the profile itself.

    I tested my Firefox on my home computer and the option dialog displays as one would expect. Since this is a portable version of Firefox, it is the same browser that I was running on my laptop. So the problem appears to be related to the laptop's display setup, and not to the setup of Firefox or the Add-in. I suspect it has to do with NVidia which manages my displays. I will test further as time permits.

    It seems to me that it is inappropriate to expect the user to adjust settings on the machine in order to accommodate an add-in application. I think that the add-in should be designed so that it can adjust to the platform upon which it is operating. There are users out there who have, for various reasons, a requirement to increase the size of the fonts on their machines.

    I think that allowing a sizable options dialog box would probably solve the problem. However, I have no idea how hard that is to accomplish in actuality.

    That would be pretty easy actually. I'll just expand the window. However to give you an example Photoshop also has this quirk. I very much liked the larger font-size on my 1920*1200 resolution but I had to settle down with the default since Photoshop wouldn't display things correctly. And surprise... you got company - mine is an Nvidia as well.
