If you want to be compatible with IE for this, what you should check is
what happens if the base URI is _changed_ while the XMLHttpRequest
object exists, e.g. by changing the attribute directly or by mutating
the <base> elements in the document (if that works).
I just tested this. Internet Explorer indeed takes note of of changes to
<base>. (Either changing .href or adding a <base> element.) Ouch!
This means that resolving of the URI has to happen on invoking send() I
suppose using the then current base URI (where to find that base URI
should be the same).
Does anyone see any potential problems with this?
