Folks,
Right now in WebKit, beforeload events are not universally sent for link
elements. In particular, link elements with the rel type icon, dns-prefetch
and prefetch do not generate beforeload events. In a recent review of bug
51941, ap raised the question that perhaps they should be sent.

1. Should HTML Link rel=prefetch have beforeload events?
2. How about rel=icon and rel=dns-prefetch ?
I don't see why these wouldn't fire beforeload. They are resource requests
like any others. I don't know
Chromium-specific note:
link rel=icon is loaded externally to WebKit, which will likely complicate
matters here.

this in preparation for adding Link header support, initially for these

Out of curiosity: what's controversial about that?
Some of the discussion is written down in
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20018.
Do other browsers support these values in the HTTP Link header? Do Web sites
use them? I think the idea of triggering subresource loads from HTTP headers
instead of the HTML itself is problematic. We should support it only to the
degree required for Web compatibility.

Firefox definitely supports rel=prefetch in HTTP Link headers. I believe it
also supports other rel types, like stylesheet. The rel=subresource bit is
something new.
Supporting the Link header enables web servers to inject link tags without
modifying the document, which can be useful,
