I definitely think that we should add some variety of adaptive bitmapped image asset loading to HTML; I've made such feature proposals myself.

That said, I think it would be a mistake to add such a feature *in the HTML5 timeframe*. We've already deferred several other features to HTML.next; if we're going to actually finish HTML5, we need to stop taking on new features for it.
