- On an https page, set meta referrer to 'always', 'origin' or any other value that should cause a non-empty referrer on downgrade (https-&gt;http) navigation
- Use window.open to open an http page that displays the referrer (e.g., www.whatismyreferer.com)

Expected results:
A referrer matching the meta referrer policy.

Actual results:
A blank referrer regardless of policy.

Note that the policy *is* honored for window.open for http-&gt;http or https-&gt;https window.opens (which was <a class="bz_bug_link
