That depends on your definition of reliable. CSP not a panacea, but it is expected to be able to enforce a set of restrictions that are reliable. Reliability is an aspect of any feature in the browser I image so its not like we can dodge that. To rely on those particular restrictions sites will have to try to determine if the UA supports it, which it will try to do (poorly) by mapping UA versions to CSP support.

I don't mean to try to short circuit the conversation around this but I feel like we've gone several rounds on versioning and I'm trying to figure out if there are any additional issues we haven't already discussed. If the major objection is that developers may some day actually rely on CSP to provide a set of security mitigation then I can honestly say that's a problem I'd be happy to have. Thanks,
  Lucas.

But by design, it can't be entirely reliable, because it can't read the developer's mind. Or have you got the ESP module working properly now? :-)
