I'm aware that StatusCode 418 isn't officially defined by the HTTP-standard but rather by HTCPCP.
The HTTP-Standard doesn't include 418 at all but there are a few webserver-variants out there, that are able to return 418.

Namely:
- node.js
- Go lang
- StackOverflow (in Response to CSRF Violations)
- Google (See URL provided in report)

Please note that I don't want Firefox to implement the HTCPCP-Protocol as described in bug 46647.
Only the Statuscode-description should be added.

I am seeing the the website is actually returning "418 - No Reason Phrase" so,
the Net works panel seems to be  displaying correct info. Why we should
change that?

I believe this is a bug related to HTTP/2 as it has no status phrase so it's up to the client to show one. But firefox doesn't seem to provide one for certain error types. This is the case for 422 as well - which unlike the teapot one is actually an error that is used in the wild.

Duping to the bug that will fix this. I have no plans to implement HTCPCP though.
