Sorry I was not even aware of this, and thank you for pointing it out.
Yes, I think this is a good direction.
With some extensions to this feature perhaps image sets would become
unnecessary. The CSS calculations could just enable the appropriate image
based on the image box pixels size, and it would have a lot more flexibility
than the image set proposals. It could also be used to select among video
sets. Perhaps also among stereoscopic 3D image formats if this were an
attribute available to the calculations.
