The position of the "Apply" button already implies that it applies to
every setting in the panel, including UI scale. If it didn't apply to UI
scale, we would have to move the button and the scale controls so that
they obviously didn't relate to each other.

It's also generally a bad idea for changing a setting to alter the UI of
the setting itself.

For those two reasons, I agree with Iain that this setting should not be
instant-apply. So that can be changed straight away. That leaves the
problem of displaying a preview of the new setting, so I'll work on that
next.

Title:
  allow UI scale revert

Status in “unity-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Currently, the user can set the slider to a really big or small value
  which would result in parts of the configuration dialog being outside
  the screen making it difficult or impossible to change the setting
  back to something more reasonable.

  A way to avoid that problem would be to detect that condition and
  present a confirmation dialog to the user. In case the user tries to
  set such a ridiculusly huge scale value that not even the confirmation
  dialog would be visible or usable, then we should detect that as well
  and temporarily switch back to the original scale factor until the
  user confirms his choice.
