This isn't necessarily sufficient for us, as we need to handle resources loaded via non-HTTP protocols, such as custom protocols defined by applications. Since text/xsl is the most common type for these, failing on it would be unexpected.

Interesting, thanks for explanation! I can't find where XMLHttpRequest2 (or RFC2616?) says that - I guess we'll just need to test what other browsers do.
