Getting the pixels on char and stage sprites to line up properly at higher res

A bit of a minor nitpick, but I was wondering if it's possible to properly align the pixels on character sprites with stage background sprites even at higher resolutions? Y'know, so you don't get something like this:

You'd have to ensure the character never moves less than 1 pixel of its native resolution and avoids floats entirely, which is going to be difficult considering how the engine handles friction and gravity.

Oh, I want a diagram. I fucking love diagrams.

So I'm guessing it'd be a pretty tedious job?

You'd have to micromanage everything to ensure characters move in whole pixel units, so it's not worth it outside of a full game.

Well actually, the intent is for an eventual full game. I just wanted to know if it was even possible ahead of time since I haven't seen it done before.
