It's not clear to me how the ResourceRequest created by XMLHttpRequest will be annotated with the XHR target type using your proposed set of callbacks.

In comment #35 you said that in order to plumb the target type everywhere, we'd need to cache it in ResourceLoadScheduler. I was referring to that comment: I don't think that's a big issue, as we do that already e.g. in CachedResource.cpp (i.e. the information what target type to use is kept in the cache so we can attach it to the resource request when we need it)
