But you've already read the Media-Queries draft?

Opera 7. Anyhow, I consider it harmful--it's to easy to abuse.

That's not a problem, but the beauty of CSS+*ML.
There are more medias than screen and print and even those two have so many
differences, that it's not desirable to have exactly the same
representations on them.
