there is some truth in this. Certain GUI parts are inflexible. Even if
thinking of the standard theme, we are unable to change properly the
elements.
I have an old iBook, it has a big but low-resolution 800x600 screen.
Next a ThinkPad with a Hi-Res (even if not really "Retina") display. The
menus and decorations compared almost double in size.
We currently don't properly "scale" elements. I want to be able to use a
bigger font in menus and look the same. Windows does this quite well!
Fixing that would help making things more dynamic also for themes.
