[Greasemonkey] add prefetch attributes

[Leo Zelevinsky]

Thanks!

The script is quite different than what I was envisioning though -
what it seems to do is preload an image, after determining the image
path.

What I am thinking of doing is not handling any of the prefetching
itself - let Firefox do it, but just to alter the settings on the link
to add the prefetch attribute.

I guess if that's hard to do for some reason I could try to use 
GM_xmlhttpRequest instead.

And the pages I'm preloading aren't images anyway, though certainly
the idea of preloading the image is very useful too.

Thanks again though - any help on altering an element in the way I
want appreciated (I'm currently reading the 'Diving into greasemonkey'
book - so maybe that will answer my questions as well.
