Got it to work with xdummy after a few tries, but it's only worse:

screen #0:
    dimensions:    1680x1050 pixels (2167x1084 millimeters)
    resolution:    20x25 dots per inch

I used:
   xpra --xvfb="Xorg-nosuid -nolisten tcp +extension GLX +extension RANDR
+extension RENDER -logfile /tmp/10.log -config
/home/nbecker/xorg-dummy.conf" start :10

(need to give paths for -logfile and -config, not '.')

So, you now have Xdummy instead of Xvfb, by "worse" I assume you mean
that the dpi is lower which makes the fonts/lines smaller?

I think we can tell the X11 server to use a different DPI, even with the
dummy driver. Anyone?

Xorg takes:
-dpi int               screen resolution in dots per inch
That should take care of this particular session for a single client configuration, but ideally I would like to find a more general solution where the xpra client could send the xpra server the DPI it already uses and get the server to adapt on the fly. (if at all possible) I have seen a number of posts referring to xrdb and Xft.dpi, but I have no idea how that interacts with toolkits (gtk, qt, tk..)
I will need to investigate, pointers welcome.
