Finally, it would be nice to get information about the actual screen DPI.
In my tests Screen.getDpi always returns 96, regardless of what it actually
is...
You can reflectively access Screen.getPixelScale() to learn if you're on
Retina. Of course, don't expect to swap out the JRE for a newer

Some thoughts. Obviously it is less desirable to require every
application to do their own scaling. I can't imagine that this would
My usecase is not about retina or not. It is about showing a report
result in actual size which means I need to scale it depending on the
screen DPI.
Current workaround is this...
-Dcom.sun.javafx.screenDPI=109
