CSS media queries expose a lot of information already available through the Screen and Window objects, they also expose a lot of other client information. Privacy-aware webkit clients can override js objects to limit/manage the information they leak but this is not currently possible with css media queries. How to best do this is an open question so this bug is a stub for now.
