--- Comment #6 from Alexey Proskuryakov <ap at webkit.org> ---
I don't see any explanation in the linked issues of why it's desirable for non-local pages to access localhost. It's incredibly unlikely to be a legitimate use of web technology.

> I wonder how frequent it is for services accessible through the local loop to not be accessible from the LAN.

That's pretty normal. Even when accessible from LAN, that's still a different security domain than any random webpage with random ad scripts.
