Yes, but note that the default DPI is already forced by Debian's
/etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc (and I don't know if this is a good idea).

Then it would only be a default configuration if it is not set already.

Firefox is the only application where I noticed the problem. Moreover,
when I change the value (via about:config), almost nothing changes on
the output; so, I wonder what Firefox does with it, and I wouldn't be
surprised if its behaviour were regarded as completely wrong.
