I'm still owing you an answer on this... Trying to solve this somewhere at the level of GTK is a bit late and it will not help applications flying lower. I'm a dinosaur. I'm coming from a time without all that stuff where X11 (finally version 1.1! yeah!) came with The Window Manager (twm) and the scaling was controlled by starting X with the correct settings for dpi and position in your x11.conf. I'm still living in that age as I'm using lots of stuff that is still stuck in the age of Motif. My weapon of choice is the terminal and it is coming as xterm (because you will find it everywhere) and if the X server is configured correctly it will do miracles for you (just read the description at http://www.futurile.net/2016/06/14/xterm-setup-and-truetype-font-configuration/ for a good idea). If you want this to be working well for you (including readable pop-up- menus your X geometry has to be correct (and I don't think that gnome is doing a better job there without that). You can of course set parameters "by hand" in configuration files but it will not work easily across monitors with different resolutions.
