Ms2ger, you fixed bug 666666, so maybe you're interested in this.

I should add that in <https://codereview.chromium.org/35803004/> I also tested Presto and IE11 and they return "preload", so that's probably what you want. I'm going to try aligning Blink with that in <https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=310450> as well.

Move all DOM bugs that haven’t been updated in more than 3 years and has no one currently assigned to P5.
