An idea I came up with would be to standardize a new HTTP header,
something along the lines of "content-license". It would seem
appropriate to have such a header any time along a "content-type" header.
The problem I see with this is that most JavaScript files served over
HTTP these
days are composed on many different sources with different copyrights and
licenses and original source locations. So it's not just one header with a
license and you're done. It really needs to be inline in the file to
separate
different-ly licensed parts from each other clearly.
Would the combined work not have a single license effectively?
Otherwise there could be something such as "content-license: mixed" or
different freedoms could be expressed in separate independent headers.
Only when all required freedoms are permitted, LibreJS would proceed
with execution.
