If I basically understand you, this feature has to be implemented mainly in the
widget styles. So the widget style should be completely DPI sensitive (and
therefore resolution independent). Not only font sizes (and icon sizes) should
be DPI sensitive, but also all UI elements like check boxes, radio buttons,
default margins, scroll bars... This would make work out of the box all
applications that don't use hardcoded pixel sizes (and that use this DPI aware
widget style).

After this, it will be necessary to do some downstream fixes for hardcoded
pixel sizes. Settings like the size of scroll bars in Oxygen or the size of the
shadow effect in the composite manager should not be pixel values but "scale
factors" that are DPI sensitive. For example using "100%" for the default
value, and the percent value can than be incremented and decremented.

And finally we would have to scale the cursor theme.

Is this correct?
