Description Nicholas Shanks 2012-10-29 13:56:40 PDT
When no high resolution artwork has been provided by the web page author, WebKit should use super-resolution techniques on Retina displays, and possibly when zoomed in on a web page.
The linked URL shows a quick overview.

Steve Jobs would have been all over this as a market differentiator!
