Yes, it is. And dealing with the resolution is beyond but...

No objection, sounds like an easy to understand solution. But DPI and size are
not independently. You might be able to change the DPI first but the other way
around it doesn't work. So before we introduce the connect toggle we need to
work on the backend.
