Well, I enjoyed (skimming through) it :)

The part where the two of you discuss how Firefox and Chrome now load progressive JPGs with blur instead of keeping it pixelated made me wonder: what happens if I set the CSS of an image to upscale it with pixelation? Does it also force progressive JPGs to stay pixelated while loading?

Good question! I don't know off the top of my head, but since the decoder and CSS are seperate, I think you'll still get the blurred version, but then up/downscaled using nearest neighbour.
