Speaking as Xorg: No, we don't. You have _no_ idea how many displays
there are. There's nothing like effective coverage to be had here.
More to the point, your DPI numbers would be per-output anyway, so
there's no picking a single point size preference, the same size in
pixels would be different sizes in millimeters on each output.
You can't win at this. Don't try.
