It took me significantly less than a day's work to modify my source for Russell's Introduction to Mathematical Philosophy (link above) to make it available in six different sizes, even using existing tools, though I wasn't watching the clock. (Maybe 3-4 hours?)
Still, to get "arbitrary" sizing would be much more difficult. But again, this was my first attempt, and if the matter becomes routine, and we encourage people to actually develop new LaTeX packages especially for the task, then who knows how little time it might take? (Of course, my expectations are probably unreasonable high, but I think it's best to shoot for the moon, at least until you fail and know why you can't...)
