I can't recall the reasons why Florian's proposal of combining

and @srcset fell out of the discussion. To me it still looks like the
most useable draft so far.

I responsed to proposals along those lines last year:

Search for "multi-element" for the specific response to proposals that
involve multiple elements.

There are other concerns against any non-centralized approaches like
<picture>.

Any author used to the flexibility of css shouldn't have the burden to
deal with hard-coded unalterable stuff like that. It's as bad as an inline
css-style to deal with.

I do totally agree with you. AFAICS, all proposals with a significant amount of support (picture, srcset, src-N) share this problem. I don't have the impression that adding centralization has much support right now. Anyway, once there is a consent about the respImg syntax, it may be easier to propose a centralisation mechanism at the CSS side, e.g. some variable or constant useable in the MQ.
