The most detail you can get is the level of detail the printer left on the paper about 100+ years ago, minus the paper degradation. A "sensible" resolution does not depend on the rendering device and so could be established once for ever. We could require producers to provide images in a "sensible" resolution, and rescale them on the server for user consumption, but not with the present hardware budget and not without changing the WWers' workflow.
