As all my ebooks have the same font size in the css, I too would prefer specific size numbers for easier switching between fonts. Not that I switch often; still, it would be nice to have.

Are you removing all font sizes from the book or are you locating the main texts, find the relevant css rules, and remove the font size from there?
It's a tricky problem. I was using Google play books and wondering how they got font size to be the same across books. Then I realized they just force all <p> to the same font size, so copyright text is as big as main text. If you change text align from the default, say left, then every <p> is left aligned.
What's needed is some kind of analysis to identify where the "main texts" are and force preferred font size / line height / text align only to those, but that's a fuzzy criterion that only works reasonably well for straightforward narrative books. It's better for publishers to leave the main text alone. That formatting is best which formats the least.
My solution with my fork of Plato is to allow the user, namely me, to point to a paragraph and say "apply my settings to all paragraphs of this class". Less work than editing css and no more tweaking the font slider
