"DEs invariably do nothing WRT density"

This is not true. GNOME/GTK+ are doing OS X-style resolution doubling stuff
now. If the density is close enough to 192dpi you get doubled everything...

If it actually works as I think it does, I don't get why Gnome took the same granular approach to compensation as the web browser spec. DPI as a virtually infinitely adjustable zoom knob has worked well here for a decade. It just doesn't have an easy to modulate via GUI control mechanism that I'm aware of. Applying it is a cut and try process editing an optional config file.

"Again I lost all my work."

It sounds like you should probably try composing things in a text editor
and copy/pasting them into your browser...

The ease of an auto-preview textarea is a tough lure to avoid. The problem doesn't occur in any of the many bug trackers I use that run on Mozilla's tracking software, or most of the forums I frequent. The problem I ran into here is a typical result of JS links trying to create popups running up against a popups verboten setting in Gecko, resulting in the popup content usurping content of the current tab, and destroying back history in the process.
