This is a limitation of X, not Unity.

Title:
window contents scaling option per-display
Status in unity-control-center package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
In the unity control center design panel, the window content scaling
is missing a very important option: "per-display"
Background:
My primary notebook display is a 4k monitor with high dpi. External monitors
are often only 1080p monitors. Because I can't scale the displays accordingly
to their dpi, windows on one display are very small and the other one are big.
Only offering effectively basically 3 options, biggest-control-area,
smallest-control-area and according-to-one-display is not enough. It
is much needed to be able to control the window scaling according to
the display it is currently in.
A window's anchor point should decide which scaling factor is applied.
This would not prevent falsely scaled windows to clip into other
displays, but it would be very much appreciated by multi monitor
users.
