I guess you are referring to the per-server HTTP connection limit, but 
I am guessing on your reference.  If so, perhaps modeling the ICEbis 
limits (for ICE  connectivity checks) on that design is a straw man 
we should consider.  If not, perhaps you could clarify what Most
Browsers do regarding such a crafted web page (which of course need
not be IMG, but any HTML tag that pulls content from another host).
