Joey,
With respect to your question re HiDPI displays and Xfce, I'm using
Xfce4 from Debian Testing on a Lenovo T540p with 3k screen, and
setting things up was fairly straight forward. I got most of what I
needed by setting Custom DPI Setting in Settings -> Appearance ->
Fonts -> DPI.
Did you have to edit anything else as well? I wonder if there could be
some installer hook that detects DPI and adjusts these settings
automatically...
The main pain point that I've had is that Google Chrome doesn't
support HiDPI very well. I've manually adjusted the zoom level which
mostly compensates almost everything except the buttons on the
toolbar, but that's a problem which is independent of the desktop
environment, and won't be fixed until Aura support for Linux
arrives[1].

So that's my experience with Xfce and HiDPI displays; at least for
this hacker, it was orders of magnitude less painful than dealing with
GNOME. :-)
I would appreciate if you went into a little detail on what pain you
had with GNOME for comparison purposes.
Thank you,
