I decided to follow a more incremental strategy because I feel this is getting unwieldy. I split the issue in three parts for now: 1. Expose scale factor in the rif (patch in https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=37770) 2. Implement image scaling in Cairo and maybe X11 backends (this ticket) 3. Some code cleanups / refactors pertaining the initialization sequence of backends (patch in https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=37755) 1 is a must-have for 2, 3 is a nice-to-have. I'm writing a proper patch for 2 on top of my patch for 1 that I will be attaching here soon. Are you ok with this strategy? It's not the one-hack-to-rule-them-all approach envisioned at the beginning but it simplify things a lot for anyone wanting to make macos and win backends actually scale their bitmaps, which shouldn't be difficult at all (or even necessary, I still have doubts regarding macos). Plus it hopefully brings some code improvements and a necessary API.
