I think we should state that client should treat resources at lowest
priority if priority attribute is missing, because we need consensus
between generator and clients that client will use resources in the
order as generators expect.
I propose to add following at the end of 4.2.8.1 and 4.2.16.1:
If priority attribute is missing, clients should treat those elements
as lowest priority.

OK, I think we can leave them untouched, because it causes no harm.
