I don't see what's so horrible about how Apple handles resolutions for retina Macs. It lets me have a HiDPI screen that either 1) shows the app in HiDPI the way it was meant to be or 2) (worst case) doubles all the pixels, making it about the same quality as 1x screens before. It also gives me flexibility in getting more space than native retina resolution without having too much blur. Furthermore, something that is great for accessibility reasons, it finally allows lower resolutions without having a blurry picture. A killer feature for my father - the upgrade in screen quality from his old Lenovo running at 2/3 native resolution and his 15' Retina is insane.
