            Bug ID: 218909
           Summary: Umbrella bug for general compatibility with default
                    referrer policy=strict-origin-when-cross-origin
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Frames
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: davidvc-webkit at google.com

There's a pending PR to the referrer policy spec (https://github.com/w3c/webappsec-referrer-policy/pull/142) which changes the default policy to strict-origin-when-cross-origin. This truncates requests' referrers to (at most) their origins on all cross-origin requests that do not explicitly set more permissive policies. As part of the standard process of landing a spec PR, I'm filing this umbrella feature request/tracking bug to keep track of (intentional and unintentional) differences between WebKit and the standardized behavior in these cases.
