What you are describing is not enough, the X server or the X compositor would still need to scale windows up/down if they don't support scaling or if you want to have fractional scaling. It's not something a old-style window manager can do -- There is just no real "Xorg way" on how to do this right now.
- badsectoracula 6y agoThis is only needed if a program doesn't support scaling itself and is something that a compositor can support. In addition there is a branch by Keith Packard for having server-side window scaling that could also be used for this and work independent of any window manager (though a compositor can also be made to work with any window manager - for example there are people using a compositor with Window Maker even though WM doesn't support composition).
