> Funny thing about that: if you want them to be scaled correctly based on different factors for each monitor, then you need a compositor...

No, you don't. And using a naive compositor is liable to make things blurry compared to the direct approach (the application requests the physical dpi for its current location and changes its vector drawing).

Yeah you do if you want to have the same window span across monitors. And if you have non-integer DPI scaling then things will probably always be either blurry or inaccurate, that is unavoidable.
