So in WebKit this event is only good for preventing _processing_ of the data in the

That’s a bug in the current implementation that we are working on fixing.
If I might ask, how do you plan to fix it without at least breaking
speculative loads in the presence of beforeload handlers? I just don't
see how WebKit's current event setup can be used without doing that,
because it requires the relevant DOM node to exist.
