Re: [slightlyoff/ServiceWorker] Foreign fetch and no-referrer Referrer Policy (#899)

Hmm, yeah. Aligning with when and how the Origin header gets emitted probably makes sense. Although it does seem surprising to me that it seems that header gets emitted even for no-referrer requests? Doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose of having both `no-referrer` and `origin` referrer policies, as the origin will pretty much always be exposed anyway?

Also not sure when the fetch standard actually decides not to emit the Origin header. As far as I can tell this is only done for a select few situations in the HTML spec (for downloads, plugins, and app-cache manifests or something like that)?
