[X2Go-User] How to scale remote apps on laptop 4k hidpi displays?

[Ulrich Sibiller]

If you are using shadowing (accessing a running X server) the screen
will be scaled down to your local native resolution. At quick glance I
don't see in the code that this could work for normal session. And I
also am unsure if it might scale up for shadowed sessions.
