Define the "Preload Cache" #97
Description
We need to define the preload cache, as currently it is not defined and different implementations are doing observably different things.
I think the best place to define such a cache is in Fetch, but as this spec would be its main consumer, thought we should a) discuss it b) track it on this side as well

Note: address discussion in #85 when we tackle this.

+1. My intuition is this belongs in Fetch and I'd be curious how closely we could get a preload cache matching HTTP cache semantics. The double download possibilities in some browsers would otherwise be unfortunate.
Do we have a Fetch issue to cross-reference?

Opened whatwg/fetch#590 on Fetch. I'm not sure there's any immediate action on the preload spec, so closing this issue here. Let me know if you disagree.

I don't think you should close this until it's actually fixed on the Fetch side. This specification is the cause.

Fair enough. Reopening

Discussed at TPAC 2018:
Update preload to remove the as 'audio'/'video' types.

Closing as the preload cache is now defined. Feel free to reopen if I've missed something
