As an author, I can't see much use for that. I'll rescind this last statement. I can see use for it in a print only style sheet, in limited circumstances where I know what the dpi of the device is. But I'd be happier if I could just specify a 1/4 pixel line for a printer and have it rounded to 19 pixels on a 9600 dpi printer. I'm not sure if this actually happens in all browsers or not.
