Okay, so based on Simon's latest comment this functionality doesn't seem to be limited to just dpi queries - you want more types of media queries, and so we might as well just use the full MQ set and be done with it.

Now, is this problem (styles for different MQ are defined separate from each other, with selectors repeated) usually unique to images, or is it a more general issue that will apply to other properties?

If the former, we can make a function for MQ, or add a term to image() for it.  If the latter, we should really push for a more general solution like nesting @media inside of declaration blocks.  This is already present in preprocessors like SASS, so we can potentially look for SASS code to see how much this functionality is used in the wild and how it is used.
