Here's what I think we should do:

1) simplyfy srcset to only accept the *x qualifier

2) add support for srcset as an attribute of the <source> sub-element of
the <picture> element (in addition to src, or instead of it? I am not
sure).

Then you could do stuff like this:
<picture>
<source media="(orientation:landscape)" srcset="long.jpg 1x, long2.jpg 2x">
<source media="(orientation:portrait)" srcset="tall.jpg 1x, tall2.jpg 2x">
<img src="fallback.jpg" />
</picture>

Yesterday I made a similar proposal in an other thread:
http://lists.whatwg.org/pipermail/whatwg-whatwg.org/2012-May/036143.html

I'd like to suggest that @srcset in this form would also be suitable for the <img> element, to address the optimization use case (without art direction) without the verbosity of <picture>.
