At the very least, I would like someone to verify that the patch does
not make things any worse, even on a normal 96 DPI screen.

But yes I would like a test from someone who has a version of Windows
that supports DPI scaling and a high-resolution screen to test Octave
with and without the patch applied.

This patch has already been proven to be beneficial on GNU/Linux systems
with HiDPI scaling enabled. If no one volunteers to test on Windows, I
will probably just apply it on the default branch for Octave 5 and we'll
see if anyone notices later. I would really like to apply it on the
stable branch with some testing.
