1) simplyfy srcset to only accept the *x qualifier
Is there a good reason to believe that * will be something other than
a power of two?
That is, could we just optimize the *x syntax away and specify that
the first option is 1x, the second is 2x, the third is 4x, etc.?
Explicitly specifying the * in *x allows more flexibility in the future
for cases such as:
- If sometime most displays will have 2x or higher resolutions, authors
might want to set 1x versions aside.
- If 3x or whatever displays should occur, the spec should be suitable
for them, too.
- Some UAs might decide to progressively load sources in order to
emulate what we know from interlaced GIFs. Authors could for this
purpose add 0.5x and even 0.25x versions.
