I do write High-DPI aware LCL application with Lazarus without problems. 
The IDE itself should at some point in the future support it as well 
(IMO by default, without any extension). But I don't know if there are 
some plans about it.
I haven't bought a 4K display because of High-DPI problems in Delphi and 
Lazarus IDEs.
