           Summary: Please add a note about loading appcache master
                    entries that are listed in NETWORK section

There is a long section in HTML5 describing loading of ambiguous entries:

-------------------
If a resource is listed in the explicit section or as a fallback entry in the
fallback section, the resource will always be taken from the cache, regardless
of any other matching entries in the fallback namespaces or online whitelist
namespaces.

When a fallback namespace and an online whitelist namespace overlap, the online
whitelist namespace has priority.

The online whitelist wildcard flag is applied last, only for URLs that match
neither the online whitelist namespace nor the fallback namespace and that are
not listed in the explicit section.
-------------------

It would be helpful to mention master entries here, as well. I've seen people
list https://www.their_site.com in NETWORK section, and expect all resources
not listed as explicit ones to be loaded from the network, including the HTML
document.
