I have had similar considerations, but have not managed to get any further
than wondering what method could be used. I don't think it will be trivial,
and there'll always be cases where you get an opposite behavior of what you
want.

If a smart behavior isn't possible, I prefer the current one. The current
method works the same way as if you rendered the image at huge resolution
and then scaled it down.
