And finally coming back to this after a lot of completely unrelated delays on my time.  Sorry, all, for leaving this hanging so long.

I added the extra bit of text I proposed long ago to further acknowledge that the DNS queries may not occur until connection time and to acknowledge that there's a lot of wishy-washing "implementation-defined" going on here.

Is this looking like an overall reasonable PR to people, or is there a strong desire for HTTPS RRs to be more completely specified within Fetch? I personally don't think there's much value in specifying it more completely, and I don't see how it could be done without either way over-specifying it or significantly reworking huge portions of Fetch way beyond what I feel I am personally comfortable or capable of writing up myself.
