Level of Detail Control

Can style sheets be used to describe how to present a document at different levels of detail?

One idea is to introduce a new @ command into CSS, e.g.

   @detail medium {
       p { speak: none }
       p.abstract { speak: normal }
   }

Alternatively we could adapt the @media command for this, e.g.

   @media aural detail=low {
       p { speak: none }
       p.abstract { speak: normal }
   }

It seems valuable to be able to parameterise the @media command for this purpose.
