All the gnome settings are utterly useless. They are based
only on the user. If you change the scaling factor to suit
one monitor, then it is hopelessly screwed up when you
login via NX or run apps remotely on a different display.

Overriding the EDID is the only solution that works consistently
since it is per-monitor, which is where the problem is, not
per-user, which is the wrong place to change the settings.
