Should devicePixelRatio and device-pixel-ratio be affected by browser zoom? It seems to me that if the user zooms in a persistent way, it would make sense to adjust device-pixel-ratio to match. For example, if the user always views the page with a zoom of 2x on a 96dpi desktop screen, then there are two device pixels per CSS pixel and device-pixel-ratio should be 2. OTOH I can see that if the user zooms in and out a lot just to navigate (as is often the case on mobile browsers), we might not want device-pixel-ratio to vary. Perhaps it should be up to the browser? Rob -- Jesus called them together and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave — just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” [Matthew 20:25-28]
