Re: Media queries in <switch> elements

Hi,

I wonder that the current implementations can offer the similar effect, although it 
does not use 'switch'.
https://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/WG/wiki/Proposals/Zoom_feature_for_media_queries#min.
2Fmax-width.2Fheight_properties_in_CSS_Media_Queries
Of course, it does not carry out conditional dynamic resource loading.
Then, we had a discussion on dynamic loading based on the document which
you pointed out. http://www.w3.org/2013/06/03-svg-minutes.html#item18

In the meantime, the editor's draft of resource priorities was published.
http://www.w3.org/TR/resource-priorities/

Since it had roughly aligned with the argument on previous our discussion, discussion 
regarding that is going.

keywords=svg&search=Search

I have not made reference about 'switch' element because our use case was
not only choosing only one resource in them. Our use case is being able to
choose some of divided fragments of graphics based on the conditions by
zooming and panning.

It is like introducing it to this page.

The source code by SVG may be such a thing.

I wonder that it is a superordinate concept that were examined as
responsive/adaptive images until now.
