--- Comment #14 from Antti Koivisto <koivisto at iki.fi> ---
In practice we need this sort of information through the stack. We can pass it via side channels. This is bug-prone and cumbersome. We could add a new high level request type that knows about the web and wraps a low level type that doesn't. This is adds yet another layer to the already too layered networking code.

In the end we are making a browser engine not a platonic networking platform. "Web concepts all the way through" is a decent description of WebKit architecture.
