--- Comment #2 from oliver lloyd <[email protected]> ---
Fair point. Would it make sense to not use '\t' at all and only parse on ':'?

Both Chrome and Firefox use semicolons so the use case supports this change.

Note. Firefox (v13 on OSX) will separate lines using a comma, which still needs
replacing with a linefeed but the key values are split on semicolon.

The reason why I think using semicolons in place of tabs is better is because I
think that in most cases this feature will be used in this manner - to copy and
paste headers and params directly from a browser inspect window.

Another reason to support the change is simply that it is, arguably, non
standard to use tabs to separate key value pairs, whereas the use of a
semicolon is standard.
