Advanced Display parameters missing in severn

In RHL9 the System Settings > Display dialog has an Advanced tab with a 
DPI section and a Set DPI button that opens a sub-dialog that allows 
manual setting of the Monitor width and height in whatever units one 
specifies.  This is very useful for matching the dimensions of a frame 
in a word processor with the dimensions of a picture inserted from a 
file that has the size determined by a program such as Gimp.

There is no such facility in the Display applet in severn.  Is there 
another way to set these parameters?  If not, it seems a regression to 
remove this facility from the new version of RHL.

Thanks.

Gerry
