Making @media rules implement EventTarget sounds ok, as long as the
events don't bubble. But is the main use case for this API actually
people who already have @media rules, or people who want to do
things separately from @media rules and would thus now have to go
through the bother of adding some to a style sheet? (The CSSOM also
isn't very good at giving you the rule object after adding a rule.)
I might still lean towards an
addMediaQueryListener/removeMediaQueryListener type API.
Yeah, if @media was enough we would not have needed to provide the
matchMedium() abstraction.
styleMedia.addMediumListener(mq, callback)
styleMedia.removeMediumListener(mq, callback)
Sounds good to me. With the same semantics as addEventListener(). (I.e.
duplicates removed, invoked in order of registration.)
And as context information the media query and how it currently evaluates?
What kind of representation for the media query? Serialized form?
