I opened https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-
tools/+bug/1885025 for the open-vm-tools issue, I don't know for which
package I should file the bug with the missing 150% setting.

Title:
  Fractional scaling not persisted in VMware Player

Status in mutter package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Related to
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1825593,
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1852860,
  but those report the issues are fixed. They also do not mention the
  VMware specific issues.

  Install Ubuntu 20.04 in VMware Player, install open-vm-tools (done
  automatically with Easy Install), go to settings, enable Fractional
  Scaling and select any non-integer value.

  Results:
   - The scaling is applied
   - VMware Tools (open-vm-tools) appears to break, no more seamless mouse 
between host and Ubuntu
   - After next reboot the setting is reverted to 100%
