3. My (and Nicholas's previous) proposal: Script elements are fetched when inserted into the DOM[1]. An event is dispatched when the script has been fetched, eg. "onfetch" or "onpreload"[2]. A "preload" attribute is added; when true, the script will not be executed when the fetch completes; call script.execute() to run the script.
I strongly prefer this proposal to either of the other two, for what it's worth. Is the concern that this doesn't degrade as nicely in UAs that don't support preload or something? If not, what _are_ the arguments against this proposal? Links to existing discussion are fine if this ground was already covered.
