How can I use a different zoom on different displays in Windows 8?

Question

I have a Windows 8 15" laptop with a 1920x1080 screen resolution. At that size, everything is really small. In the "Screen Resolution" configuration window, I click on the link "Make text and other items larger or smaller" and from there I can change the size of all items to 125% or 150% to make them bigger on the screen.

I have a 22" screen that is connected via hdmi to my laptop. The screen resolution is also 1920x1080 and on this screen, everything looks good when the display is at 100%.

Here's my question: is there any way I can have a different "zoom" for each screens?

I'd like to have my laptop display at 150% and my "external" screen at 100%. One way to do it is to change the screen resolution of my laptop screen to 1600x900 but then the text gets all blurry so it's not a good solution.

Thanks!

Solution

It seems that Windows 8.1 will allow me to do exactly what I want according to this:

So the solution is to wait a month or so...
