This is just a thought that crossed my mind after reading this article on A List Apart:

http://www.alistapart.com/articles/a-pixel-identity-crisis/

The article discusses differences in web page rendering that arise from devices on which a physical pixel (i.e., a "hardware pixel") is not the same as a so-called "reference pixel". In the example shown in Figure 2, the following CSS code is used to normalize content across a Galaxy Tab and a Kindle Fire:

@media screen and (device-pixel-ratio: 1)
and (device-width: 1024px)
and (max-device-height: 600px)
and (orientation: landscape),
screen and (device-pixel-ratio: 1)
and (device-width: 600px)
and (max-device-height: 1024px)
and (orientation: portrait)

I'm wondering if this is something that could/should be incorporated into normalize.css?
