(this is a minor point)
In section 14.5:
The Accept-Ranges response-header field allows the server to
indicate its acceptance of range requests for a resource ....
Origin servers that accept byte-range requests MAY send
Accept-Ranges: bytes
It's a bit unclear what the scope of the accept-range
response header is. Is it just for the requested resources, or for a larger
set of resources?
That is, if the origin server will accept byte-range requests
for some, but not all, resources (say, not for html documents with
server side includes), then what is the proper usage of
Accept-Ranges:?
