I must be speaking un-clearly.

Didier proposed that stylesheet-association processing instructions
should include media rules.

I suggested that this is better left to a stylesheet, as not all
properties depend on the medium.  I adduced CSS's @media rule as an
example.

XSL has not yet solved this problem, but is not finished.

DSSSL does not address this problem, but was not designed for the Web,
and adding baggage to the processing instruction for this special case
is un-wise.  Providing alternate stylesheets with well-chosen titles
is a better approach.
