Thanks for your feedback, Emilio-san. Yes, it may be useful for inline CSS, but since HTTP cache-control headers serve well for external resources, `<link>` and `<img>` may not benefit from the attribute even if we add it.
Anyway, we'd like to focus on the `cachehint` attribute for inline scripts and don't currently plan to extend the attribute for other elements.
