[mediaqueries] status and moving forward

Overall, the spec looks really good. I think we should take a cut of
it and ship Level 4 with everything that we're sure is stable, since
I think that's probably a lot of it. I just raised a few issues, but
they should be straightforward to solve imho, being mostly syntactic.
I say let's solve those, fill out 2.5. Combining Media Features, and
publish an LCWD.

Stuff I vaguely remember (or are noted in the draft) as not being
100% sorted as to whether they're the right approach:
   - light-level
   - inverted-colors
   - custom MQ

These I think should be deferred to Level 4 so as not to hold up the
rest of the features, some of which are desperately needed (like
pointer and hover). And of course we should continue to actively
work on them, and fold in the prefer-* stuff that's quite closely
related, use case wise, to the first two.

Thoughts?
