That’s bad for mobile - especially if a website has really large images for high-DPI devices. I think you can configure some mobile browsers to always download low-DPI assets to save on bandwidth.

You could make it optional. Right now there's almost nothing you can do when you visit a site even if you know it uses this technique.
