In theory™ such could be achieved on the client level, ie. if you move a window, it checks where it resides, calculates the natural dpi from device measures and resolution, alters (in case of Qt, not idea about gtk ;-) the device pixel ratio setting and cause a full update.
Of course you're still in some conflict whenever the window is between two screens.
