font rendering is strange
I have standard 1920x1080 20" display and since Atom by default looks "small" on this setup, I tried to used your pkg to scale it up (instead of searching for tons of css selectors for each Atom's UI component and pasting it in own css). The problem is with main editor's pane (the one source code is presented in) - when I scale the font via css (or via Ctrl-+), it's sharp. When I scale it via your atom-hidpi (by e.g. setting default scale factor = 1.25) it's objectively less sharp.
Also - I'm on Windows 10 and using Atom 1.6. In both cases (with hdpi enabled/disabled), when I take screenshot of the app's window and magnify it (in e.g. standard Windows' painting app = nearest neighbour scaling), it's pretty obvious part of the editor's pane is antialiased using subpixel rendering while part is NOT antialiased this way! It's pretty clearly visible here http://imgur.com/8EDdag5 Yet the font rendering is more blurry with hidpi enabled.
ah, i see, the whole trick is about webframe.setzoomfactor, so there's nothing that can be done about it on your side
