1124704 - "Edit and Resend" changes Accept header when sending

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1270096

Description

[Victor Engmark]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:35.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/35.0
Build ID: 20150113033800

Steps to reproduce:

1. Go to https://stackoverflow.com
2. Open the Firefox Developer Tools
3. Go to the "Network" tab
4. Do a full reload (Ctrl-Shift-r)

At this point, I get the error message "Stack Overflow requires external JavaScript from another domain, which is blocked or failed to load." This turned out to be jquery.min.js from ajax.googleapis.com, so I tried debugging:

5. Right-click the failed request for jquery.min.js and select "Edit and Resend"
(6. Verify that the "Accept" header says "*/*")
7. Click "Send"
8. Click on the new request line at the bottom of the "Network" tab


Actual results:

The value of the "Accept" header of the new request is "text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8".


Expected results:

The "Accept" header of the new request should be the same as was submitted, "*/*".

This was tested on a completely new profile.
