Hi All,
I'm considering buying a 5K display (5120 x 2880) -- this one: 27" Dell UP2715K Retina Display. Mostly for gaming; Obviously this will require a pair of NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 to match it.
VirtualBox currently supports only 200% scaling, which is nowhere near enough.
Please consider adding up to 400% scaling. (or even 800% for DOS applications)
While I do not expect 5K displays to become common, they already exist, and 4K displays can become common in the next year or two.
About scaling in general: DOSbox, a DOS emulator, uses DirectDraw on Windows and OpenGL on Linux hosts, and it seems to deliver better scaling image quality than VirtualBox methods.

Re: GUI scaling on a 5K display
It would also be useful if you could specify scaling on a per display basis.
