Granted, I prefer the second approach. We should do as little code
duplication as possible.
I don't think individual backends do any scaling, but if some do, it
should be easy to disable the scaling in our code for those backends.

I'm not sure I understand how this is related to the issue at hand.
Can you elaborate?
Also, what exactly do you mean by "rendered"? In Emacs, there are
generally 2 stages of displaying any "display element" (a character,
an image, etc.): first, a backend-independent step of loading the
display element, determining its metrics, and performing the display
layout calculations derived from that; and then backend-dependent step
of actually delivering the display element to the glass. Which one of
those did you have in mind?
Thanks.
