The new implementation does work for updating the settings; however,
it's glitchy.

What I mean by that is when one has the settings set for 200% scaling,
reboots the VM and then logs back in (at least in VMWare -- haven't
tested elsewhere) the scaling for text is at 100%; however, icons appear
to be scaled. In order to get the whole desktop experience working
correctly the following sequence needs to be followed:

1. set scaling for the display to 100%. click apply. Click keep settings.
1.a. Repeat #1 because you need to do it with more feeling.

2. set the desktop to 200%.
2.a. Repeat #2 because, once again, more feeling is required to get the setting 
to stick than the initial click of 'keep settings'.

3. Close and re-open any applications that utilize the DPI scaling
functionality.
