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?
