Details

Bug 1839918 added support for cookies, Bug 1848406 for most storages. We should check if there are other storages or caches we want to cover.

Blocks: btp-etp-strict
Priority: P3 → P2

The cache itself is making site loads stateful. However, there are a few redirects that are widely used that might be worth keeping:

  • http to https (with 301 permanently moved, but HSTS is the better mechanism)
  • www. to non-www. (or opposite)
  • to different tld: google.de to google.com

There are likely other valid redirects, however redirects itself can be used to store data.

E.g.:

https://tracker.example -> https://anothertracker.example/?user-id=8050c553-4e46-47d8-bfa5-df3c3c51d060

No longer blocks: btp-etp-strict, btp-nightly
Priority: P2 → P3

Closing in favor of "stateless" mode.
