Scaling down of islands causes UV stretching

[Oliver_Noone-Jones]

I have encountered a behavior and I am unsure of what to do. When I scales down the back of the loin cloth the vertices for the seams and being shared across islands. When I scale it also scales part of the front of the loin cloth.

After

I know why this is happening but am unsure what to do have the back of the cloth a lower resolution and the front remain untouched. So my question is what can I do and what do you think I should do.
