Comment:

 Ok, this is all set and merged. I had to alter the patch a bit to ensure
 request randomization. I also pinged Henze and Panchenko with the updated
 version.

 I also looked into the SPDY spec briefly. It has the ability to store
 arbitrary state in the browser.. We'll want to neuter that, as well as
 reduce its insanely long keepalive duration. I have not put deep thought
 into how to do request randomization or stream limiting in spdy, though
 (or if it is really beneficial anymore in the face of the ultra-efficient
 request pipelining).
