<pre>The changes for <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_RESOLVED bz_closed"
title="RESOLVED FIXED - Tighten XMLHttpRequest setRequestHeader value check"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=128593">Bug 128593</a> were made to make the validation of the HTTP header tighter as per suggestions RFC 7230.
Looking at the changes made, extra validation has been implement namely classing a single SPACE character as invalid.
RFC 7230 doesn't not specify that this is an invalid value.
I am reporting this since we utilites the ablility to set the "Content-Type" to a space character and these changes have broken our site.</pre>
