• 2em base font size is waaaaaay too large. I zoomed out to 50% and breathed a sigh of relief (and later dialed it back up to 67% which was tolerable too and probably more where it should be for such a thing). • radio/checkbox need to be more distinct. I recommend a cross in the checkbox. • Focus styles: you’ve killed the outlines on radio/checkbox and not replaced them with anything better, which is doubleplusungood…

Pretty cool, just wanted to point out the pencil cursor doesn't really map to the cursor location properly in Safari (confirmed this works properly in Chrome).
