I think that's getting a little too generic. Most of the time
if decorative images don't load it's not a big deal. For
backgrounds it's a readability issue, though.
The other important one that needs fallbacks is 'content', we're
handling that by making it take a comma-separated list of values.
content: url(hello.png), "hello";
I guess you could argue that distinguishing between the cases where
this results in a replaced element (using hello.png) vs. where it's
just text ("hello") would be useful.
