I took a look at the new Navigation Timing tests that exercise redirects. Thanks for submitting them! I just wanted to make a couple of comments:

http://w3c-test.org/webperf/tests/submission/Microsoft/NavigationTiming/test_timing_server_redirect.htm

1. We should verify that navigationStart is non-zero. If we accidentally zero it out thinking it's cross-server (or any other buggy reason), the rest of the tests won't detect it.

2. This is redundant and can be removed:
test_timing_order('redirectEnd', 'navigationStart');

http://w3c-test.org/webperf/tests/submission/Microsoft/NavigationTiming/test_timing_xserver_redirect.htm

1. As of right now, this should also check that navigationStart is 0.
