My Chrome browser does not send a byte range request for: 
http://www.w3.org/2008/WebVideo/Fragments/media/fragf2f.mp4#t=12,21 and 
it receives a 200 OK response.

My Firefox browser (with the Media Fragment plugin enabled) does the 
right thing :-)

I agree. But this is one important piece we should not ignore neither.
