I'm wondering what the use cases are. To me, adding a way for metadata to change document behavior sounds like a misfeature - it adds significant complexity to the system, while taking away existing functionality. As a specific example discussed in this thread, we'd break some browser extensions like Incognito if resource loading could bypass onbeforeload. As another example, we'd break <base> element. Historically, attempts to use HTTP metadata with HTML caused significant trouble - user agents don't even agree on Content-Type handling, and more complicated features like Vary pretty much don't work at all. Is there a reason to believe that fetching resources via Link will be anything more than a source of incompatibilities and security bugs? - WBR, Alexey Proskuryakov _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev
