Hello Nate,

Fractional scaling on Plasma and Wayland is very good news. I was holding off
because of this and support for middle click paste.

I actually tried the Wayland session after this bug report and saw that apps
are run in XWayland by default, so I actually have a fully functional desktop
there. I'll probably keep using it. And I fully understand that my X11 setup is
not supported. It's more like a hack that I grown accustomed to.

However, I still think that there is a bug in the UI in the case an X11 session
is used that should be solved. Hack or not, I don't see why setting the scaling
factor to exactly 1 should not be possible. 

If it says scaling factor=1 in the settings, the scaling factor should be 1,
not 2. It seems that 1 currently means "auto", which seems wrong. It took me
time to try to understand what was going on. On my computer, it is impossible
to set scaling factor=1, though the UI is pretending I can. It does not make
sense. It seems for me that an option should me added, "Auto", which is the
current behavior of "1".

I don't have this issue on the Wayland session, where scaling factor 1 is
actually 1.
I'm happy with the Wayland session now, which I discovered thanks to this
issue, but I still think that this bug should be fixed as long as the Xorg
session is used by default in most distros.
