Handy to know. I often wondered why Firefox just uses linear scaling when
bicubic is so much better and it looks like Safari has finally done it properly.
Let's hope the other browsers pay attention and copy the idea.
Of course it doesn't change the root problem that preview scaling should really
be done server side to save bandwidth. If there's one thing more annoying than
waiting on a giant blurry picture of a crappy model it's waiting on a small,
poorly scaled view of a giant blurry picture of a crappy model.
