(In reply to Daniel Bates from comment #7)
> Option 2: Duplicate frame-ancestor check and all CSP checks applied to
> redirect requests in the network process.
>     Advantage: Network process does not need to message web content process
> on each redirect request to ask if the load is allowed by the page's CSP
> policy; => avoid IPC.
>     Disadvantage: Must duplicate all CSP checks for redirects in network
> process to avoid the need to message web content process on each redirect
> request to ask if the load is allowed by the page's CSP policy. (We may be
> able to extract some or all of the CSP checks, at least the checks in 
> CachedResourceLoader, into a common functions that is used both by the
> network process and WebCore. It is non-trivial to do this refactor).
