--- Comment #6 from Yoav Weiss <yoav at yoav.ws> ---
If you are referring to the density info that images contain (e.g. http://www.w3.org/TR/PNG/#11pHYs and the Xdensity, Ydensity in JFIF's APP0 marker), these seem to be largely ignored by both browsers and desktop image viewers, which means we cannot start supporting them without breaking content. 
Also, since the same image can be served in different width & density combinations, I'd say baking this info into the image is not ideal. (e.g. a 600px wide image that is displayed over the entire viewport can be served to a 1x, 600px wide screen or to a 2x, 300px wide screen)

FWIW, the header we're discussing here does the same thing that srcset's descriptors are already doing in markup across all modern browsers.
