I did that yesterday, but Xorg didn't take it into account
(the DPI remained at 96), and there was no change in the LightDM
login screen either.

But I doubt that this would be useful since the problem is that
lightdm-gtk-greeter doesn't honor the DPI for the icons when it
is set at 235 (see above).
