Re: [fetch] Initializing context/content specific fetch defaults (#43)

I agree that it's orthogonal to context, but the original intention of `as` was to indicate download priority to the browser. The way this discussion is going, we'll probably need to add another, separate hints to enable the "download a low priority context in high priority" use case. (which is fine, but we'd need to address that)
