It does, actually...
<http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-mediaqueries/#resolution>
...and it already works in a few browsers.

Constructions like this...

@media screen and (min-device-width: 1650px) and (min-resolution: 100dpi) {
html body #wrapper {font-size: 115%;}
}

...will give better control over the final result - once support grows.
Latest Opera(beta) and Safari are ready for testing now.

What that "control" is used for is another matter, as "control" is
relative and applying too much "control" is often counter-productive and
tends to lead to failure.
In-depth knowledge of the wide range of combinations of
hardware/software/user-options before trying to "control" anything, is a
must in web design.
