Currently on retina displays full resolution is not available. I suggest one way this might be made to work:
-
Default behaviour is to pixel double (current behaviour)
-
User can select "High resolution" in preferences
-
Individual X clients can then support high dpi in their own time (many Gnome applications already do)
Limited support seems to be in place already - using xrandr and fullscreen mode, full resolution can be achieved. This suggestion is to make it available for windowed clients too, as an option.
