A bit of background:
https://github.com/whatwg/fetch/pull/464

This should likely be implemented behind a pref, in case we regress major use cases, such as corporate network, etc.
Patrick, what do you think about this? Should we proceed?
Flags: needinfo?(mcmanus)
not sure why we would unilaterally do this. is there a reason to do it without coordination?
Flags: needinfo?(mcmanus)
Implementing this, and sending an intent to ship might be a good incentive to other browsers. We don't necessarily need to flip the pref before they do.
