I have started working on OS version computing for Android in MediaQueryParser and would like your advice on something.
Currently, MQP supports min- and max- for number properties only. So I had to turn version strings to numbers to allow comparison The version number for X.Y.Z is X + Y/100 + Z/10000. AND 4.1.2 would turn to 4.0102 So to set a css for Android 4.1.2 and higher (don't know if that makes sense), you would use the following css: (os = "AND" and min-os-version = 4.0102) Is that acceptable (as long as it is documented) ? Otherwise, I will have to change MQP parsing and comparison logic to handle comparison for version strings. WDYT?

Some forum (I need to find the link) says we can find the version in an Android system file. I have an Android device (from my work, Samsung Tab 3 7") so I can test it now. Hopefully, it won't be an ANE.
