[Bug 9017] The origin argument should be used to determine whether Referer is to be omitted for XMLHttpRequest. I'm not a 100% sure at the moment when that would matter, but it seems safer.

It is also used for its value. Having said, I think this will work out fine. I
cannot imagine a situation where you can get an XMLHttpRequest constructor
object of which the XMLHttpRequest origin is a unique identifier but Referer
would still be a useful value.
