Comment:
The exact behavior for links to external resources depends on the exact
relationship, as defined for the relevant link type. Some of the attributes
control whether or not the external resource is to be applied (as defined
below). For external resources that are represented in the DOM (for example,
style sheets), the DOM representation must be made available even if the
resource is not applied. To obtain the resource, the user agent must resolve
the URL given by the href attribute, relative to the element, and then fetch
the resulting absolute URL. User agents may opt to only try to obtain such
resources when they are needed, instead of pro-actively fetching all the
external resources that are not applied.
