At least Gecko implements load delaying by grouping pending network requests
into "load groups". Regrouping the requests when a node is moved between
documents would be added complexity to address an edge case.

I don't know. I haven't tested what happens if an <img> is moved between
documents between the start and end of the image load. My expectation is that
the image load would keep delaying the load event of the document that the
image was in when the load started.
