Comment (by azaozz):

 Thinking more about the @media queries:

 - WebKit requires `-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio`.
 - No other browser supports HiDPI mode at the moment.
 - All current browsers support `min-resolution` in dpi, only Firefox
 nightlies support it in dppx.

 If we use `min-resolution` in dpi we will be sending 2x images to all
 browsers but they won't be using/showing them in HiDPI. As the browsers
 add support for HiDPI mode, they would most likely be adding support for
 `min-resolution` in dppx as well. So dppx can be used as another "check"
 whether to send 2x images to the browser.

 In that terms it would be logical to go with what [comment:81 @taylorde]
 suggested above.
