I think it's likely we need to involve other packages/projects in this bug. I'm not sure how Xmir itself could be involved other than here:
Xmir reports the physical display dimensions from Mir through XRandR: $ xrandr Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1920 x 1200, maximum 32767 x 32767 VGA-0 disconnected DP-0 disconnected HDMI-0 disconnected DP-1 disconnected HDMI-1 disconnected DP-2 connected 1920x1200+0+0 520mm x 320mm 1920x1200@60.0Hz 59.88*+ DP-3 disconnected However (by design) if you are using non-rootless mode and happen to resize the root window then those physical display dimensions are removed. Apparently because the root window no longer relates to a physical output any more: $ xrandr Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1612 x 1055, maximum 32767 x 32767 So it's possible that clients like GTK might get confused by the loss of the display information with which to calculate the output DPI.
