> In that case get_subresources might not work, if some subresources has been deleted by the document loader.

Hrm. I'm not sure what you mean here. I was thinking that maybe the loader doesn't keep a reference to subresources that aren't present somewhere in the DOM (things like AJAX replies). To be honest, I haven't confirmed this. It's the API used for [WebDataSource subresources].

> Well, I was thinking of deprecating the old api and adding a new async api to get the subresources that would transfer the ownership to the caller.

Fixing the old API probably has value too, because it will fix a memory leak in pre-existing applications.
