If you don't actually _do_ anything based on device-pixel-ratio besides
ramping up the dimensions you could just leave dpr out and let the
useragent figure out if it wants pick a higher res image:
<img src="/path/to/image-200-300.jpg" width="200" height="300"
srcoptions="/path/to/image-{width}-{height}.{format}; 200x300,
400x600, 800x1200; webp, jpg"/>
For sure srcoptions caters for automation/systematic naming. I don't think
that is a bad thing :)
