           Summary: Add a ResourceRequestBase::TargetType for favicons
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: Page Loading
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: asanka at chromium.org


Requests for Favicons may require different handling than requests for other types of requests.  I believe having a separate target type for favicons would be sufficient to differentiate these requests.

The immediate application is to suppress prompting for authentication when the target of the request is a favicon.
