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

The best definition is "stream (request) priority" section in HTTP/2: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-httpbis-http2-17#section-5.3. For HTTP/1.x the priority is not communicated to the server, but is used internally by the net-stack to prioritize order and request dispatch times.

Perhaps... ~"if requests transport priority is not set, use the request's context to initialize the request priority - e.g. stream weight and dependency for HTTP/2, or equivalent priority class used to prioritize dispatch and processing of HTTP/1.x requests."
