			* Proposal 1: As simple as possible
			** Only allow position fixed elements for zoomable non-1.0-scale pages.
			** This hides position fixed elements for legacy desktop sites, which normally has extraneous content that can get in the way of viewing content.
			** This allows developers to use position fixed in mobile and tablets from here on out.
			** This adds no new CSS attributes.
			** This removes any complications of trying to figure out which viewport to tie a fixed element to (and its confusing UX implications), because there is effectively only one.
			** Cons: do any mobile-designed sites take advantage of zooming at all? This proposal doesn't help them.

			*** Ben's critique: web developers would need to create two elements for every position: fixed element, even if the elements behave the same on all devices. We already have media queries that can be used to not apply position: fixed.
