In Gnome you can select the DPI and it will affect all Gnome based
applications - without a restart. Firefox and Thunderbird also allow
you to select a specific DPI which then only applies to the
application. But I think with all these, they simply take the real
screen dpi and calculate the zoom factor for the applications.
All this is doable in FPC/Lazarus already.
