I was interested to read this, because I too use  that weakened form
of fibration in some work attempting to get a model of univalence
based only on composition of paths rather than more general Kan
filling operations — so far unpublished, because I can't quite see how
to get univalent universes to work (but seem frustratingly close to
it).

Anyway, what I wanted to say is that perhaps one should call these
things "Dold fibrations" by analogy with the classic notion of Dold
fibration in topological spaces
