Re: [whatwg/fetch] consider exposing and allowing script to set Request priority (#436)

I believe @natechapin is working on this problem from the Chrome side now. I'll let him expand, but I think the latest thinking after priority hints didn't show promise is to allow applications to manipulate fetch priority using similar tools to how they manipulate JS task priority, with the hopes that this allows applications to make more holistic decisions like "this whole section of code, including its fetches, is less important".

The connection to #184 and coalescing is very interesting and I'd be interested in his take there.
