By the way, Mozilla's `-moz-image-rect()` functional notation looks much better than Media Fragments in CSS for several reasons:
* Media Fragments spec unreasonably tries to reuse anchor/hash
part of the URL for something that has _nothing to do_ with
anchor/hash and therefore is potentially confusing;
* functional notation looks more readable/intuitive than
`xywh`-like stuff used in Media Fragments;
* functional notation looks more flexible as for ability to mix
different units for different dimensions and also to use `calc()`
function for a single dimension value.
Since there are no implementations of Media Fragments in CSS, it may make sense to drop trying to apply Media Fragments to CSS in favor of a functional notation similar to `-moz-image-rect()`.
Thanks.
