What's the benefit? Nearly always the permanent display will have the higher actual DPI. This means: 1-96 makes everything undersize too often on internal displays 2-the external display has bigger text than the internal 3-accurate on the internal rarely means no text anywhere is illegible 4-it's invariably easier to make too big Xorg text smaller than the converse 5-what Nicolas Mailhot wrote What happens to/for multiple display users should only be fussed over after an appropriate strategy is developed for the vast majority that use a single display at a time. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
