           Summary: All ports should implement
                    ResourceHandle::didChangePriority()
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Page Loading
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: simonjam at chromium.org


During page load, we can improve Speed Index scores by ~3% if images requested normally are prioritized over images that are preloaded. In order to do that properly, we need to lower the priority of preloaded resources, then have a way to increase it once the resource is normally requested. This mechanism is ResourceHandle::didChangePriority(), but it needs to be implemented on all platforms before we can rely on it.
