Description Edward O'Connor 2012-12-05 21:09:42 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #20173 +++

The img@srcset spec lacks a script-based means to determine what resource the image element is displaying (if any). The use case for this is for testing and generally for a developer to know what is going on.
