           Summary: Enable support of X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
                    header for EFL
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Misc.
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: pmolnar.u-szeged at partner.samsung.com


As other major browsers (IE, Chromium) now support this header, we may consider turning it on, as it protects Webkit users from MIME-sniffing attacks, and it seems like it doesn't break anything.
