That's a fair comment.
The UI elements which I care about, which are the icons in the panels
are scaled with the size of the panels. The same is true with the
icons in the notification panel and window buttons.
There are are a few UI elements, such as the window decorations which
aren't scaled, but I actually prefer them to be small.
The only UI elements where it has really bothered me has been in the
Chrome Browser, and that problem is DE independent, since Gnome uses
Aura and not GTK.
The bottom line is that XFCE is actually pretty usable even on a HiDPI
screen.
