Details

Android's browser supports a property called "target-densityDpi". See the commit message here: https://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/external/webkit.git;a=commit;h=f10585d69aaccf4c1b021df143ee0f08e338cf31 Consider implementing this in Fennec. Does this allow anything for web developers that wasn't possible before? I don't think this is a widely used property.
If nothing else, this could be useful for our chrome pages (like about:home). Instead of "width=480, initial-scale=0.6667" we could use "target-densityDpi=high-dpi, width=device-width, initial-scale=1". If this were widely implemented (like, by Mobile Safari) then it could also be used in the same way by web developers optimizing for high-dpi displays.
