As a late-comer to this posting I was thinking that couldn't what you 
want be configured thru xfconf;
something along the lines of
xfconf-query -c xsettings -p /Xft/Lcdfilter -n -t string -s lcddefault
and change the latter part with DPI settings with a shell script tied to 
the username somehow.

Just a thought I had. Hope it helps.
