                    fetching is done by the <object>'s algorithm and _not_
                    the "navigate" algorithm. In particular, there's a

Comment:
Should make it clear that when an <object> navigates to a resource given in
its data="" attribute, the fetching is done by the <object>'s algorithm and
_not_ the "navigate" algorithm. In particular, there's a note in the <object>
section about appcaches meaning you might get a different resource; that
should be reversed as it should not be the case.
