In general, navigation loads are not handling redirections so it is fine to hope that a new user agent will be created.

For subresource loads, redirections are expected to be followed and the current model is to keep the same user agent in that case (would need to be tested though if we do not have such tests).

It would be interesting to see what would happen for ping loads/fetch keep alive for instance with your change.
