            Bug ID: 233173
           Summary: PCM: Add capability for click destination to fire
                    triggering event without cross-site requests to the
                    click source
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Misc.
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: wilander at apple.com

We should offer click destination sites a non-JavaScript way to fire triggering events without a requirement to make cross-site requests to source sites. This is referred to as a "same-site pixel API" and has been discussed in W3C Privacy CG: https://github.com/privacycg/private-click-measurement/issues/71. The reason why some merchants want such an "API" is reluctance to deploy new JavaScript on their sites. In some industries it's even a compliance issue. Legacy "pixels" are however accepted and so a same-site "pixel" can work for them.
