Pretty sure DIPs are not intended to be part of CSS at all and specific to implementations as an interpretation of the spec, before they were defined to be CSS pixels (which are device independent anyway, but aren't always accurate thanks to use of DIPs). The DIPs are actually the problem I was referring to with the virtual viewport. It's not the true value and just an abstraction to create DPI thresholds for the OS.

If the zoom for Android is only ever meant to be that type of zoom, then fine (mentioned this for no viewport declarations, but it seems unintuitive when the viewport size is requested to be fixed), but that does mean implementing a zoom that does change layout for accessibility in web apps (and anything else) is not as easy as it should be.

Glad to see the desktop zoom fix though, thanks.
