Description
When there is no language chosen (e.g. from first time opening DrRacket) but the editor is zoomed in, the caret is not similarly re-scaled. In the following screenshot, the line number shows the correct font size, but the vertical bar (caret) doesn't have the correct size.
Once a character is input, it does get rescaled correctly however.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue by opening DrRacket with no language selected, zooming the editor, and checking the caret before and after typing a character. Trace the editor's caret rendering and zoom handling; done means the caret matches the surrounding font size immediately, before any character is entered.
