The best scenario would be if X + Desktop Environment picked up on the
actual DPI of the screen(s) and adjusted for that automatically.
I disagree. If I hook my laptop up to a data projector, I do not want
all of my fonts to shrink to nothingness.

Unless if you are working with graphics. If I want to evaluate the
proper rendering of a map I am working on (either in bitmap or in
vectorial mode), I pretty would like to check how my map compares to
the counters that are exactly 3/4 or 1/2 wide.

want all of my fonts to shrink to nothingness.
I think that the data projector would have to lie about its DPI. It
doesn't even make sense for a data projector to tell anyone about its
DPI.

because it is set basically randomly unless

In the X world, we now have two resolutions -- the real resolution
as reported by the X server screen size information, and the font
resolution as used by Xft (the Xft.dpi resource). I would like to see
the real resolution be largely ignored by applications
