  > How does your suggestion relate to both the DPI value of your hardware and what Xorg uses? Do we actually set a higher DPI value for Hi(gher)DPI hardware automatically, so the actual size to the eye is independent of the display in use? If not, why not?
  
  I have several HiDpi displays on a few machines and  Not a single one has changed the dpi for me. I have had to set the dpi on each machine. After that is done pretty much all scaling issues go away. Other then the occasional icon or control w/ a hard coded size. I do not use scaling on my hidpi displays at all it is not needed after the dpi is correctly set.

  Looking around the net and trying on some windows machines here it seams they really bury the font size settings since i was not able to find them in the font or display area, they only provide an option to adjust scale of the screen or the dpi . To change the font setting you need to modify the theme your using.  After digging around I checked on windows 7 the default for is 9pt. every thing with a font. I was not able to find that box on the windows 10 machine tried on.
