Public bug reported:

On my HiDPI macbook running Ubuntu GNOME 15.10, I still have to run
Chromium with the --force-device-scale-factor=2 flag to get a properly
scaled browser window and controls, otherwise everything is too small.
(Not sure if this is the same under Unity -- maybe Chromium reads some
Unity specific configuration setting?)
