------- Additional Comments from Carol Szabo <carol.szabo at nokia.com>
According to Anne's comment above, the standard isn't likely to change in the
regards that affect this bug, also, apparently, there is commitment from
Firefox to change their behavior to match the current version of the standard.
IE8 will probably converge too as their current behavior is in clear violation
of HTTP standard.
Since the risk of breaking anything through this change is low I suggest that
we go forwaard and match the standard now.
