Currently gadgets can use the Preload tags in order to have the container preload resources before the gadget is actually rendered in order to improve performance. However os:HttpRequest tag currently does the same thing, and has more functionality associated with it. In addition we are looking into deprecating makeRequest which the current spec requires you use in association with Preload.

Given those two points I feel we should deprecate the use of Preload at the same time we deprecate makeRequest.
