            Bug ID: 149880
           Summary: Meta referrer isn't honored for a downgrade
                    window.open
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Safari 8
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit2
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: stuartmorgan at chromium.org

STR:
- On an https page, set meta referrer to 'always', 'origin' or any other value that should cause a non-empty referrer on downgrade (https->http) navigation
- Use window.open to open an http page that displays the referrer (e.g., www.whatismyreferer.com)

Expected results:
A referrer matching the meta referrer policy.

Actual results:
A blank referrer regardless of policy.

Note that the policy *is* honored for window.open for http->http or https->https window.opens (which was bug 111076).
