i am an owner of an p52s HiDPI modell and the whole scaling issues on qubes are 
troubling me aswell. 

Maybe you got some good contributions to solve some of these scaling issues?
Edit the Xressources didnt seems to solve everything for me and also "xrandr" 
editing didnt quite hit it. 
what kind of modifications did you do to work proper on qubes? i am tired of 
fiddling everytime a new window into right shape

how do i scale the xterm terminals right for instance?

i would love to see at least proper default configuration for 4k displays and 
would love to contribute this to the qubes community.

maybee it does make sense to wait for the gtk3 portbut this wouldnt help me 
with i3wm anyway i guess. :-/
