This is related to the larger question of how to interface with network stacks that provide more functionality than CFNetwork.

We can look at what all Chrome uses this bit of data for.  I suspect it uses it in deciding whether something should be treated as a download.

Also, the number of processses isn't really relevant here.  With respect to prioritization, the issue arises because some network transports (e.g., SPDY) have different prioritization tradeoffs.  WebCore can't do the optimal prioritization because it doesn't know what transport is being used.
