Cheers,

I think the spec needs to be carefully checked for usage of RFC2119/BCP14 terminology. For instance (<http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/~checkout~/2006/webapi/XMLHttpRequest/Overview.html?content-type=text/html;%20charset=utf-8#dfn-setrequestheader>):

"For security reasons nothing SHOULD be done if the header argument matches one of the following headers case-insensitively:"

I think I understand what the intent is, but maybe it should be rephrased to:

"For security reasons, a server SHOULD ignore any attempt to modify any of the headers below (header names being matched case-insensitively):"

Best regards, Julian
