Hi

What would happen if a resize occurs (zoom, window resize, change from landscape to portrait) after which <picture> settings dictates to load a smaller image but there has been a larger image loaded already?

I think there are two use cases:

  1) scale larger image and do not load smaller version (it would save traffic/server resources if the smaller image has the same content)
  2) load smaller image (required for art direction techniques)

Thanks.
