RE: Request to close ISSUE-78

Matthias,

I support your desire to close on the other issues so far, but this particular issue appears to need more discussion as initial proposals offered more than one DNT header value to represent different "types" of DNT exception.

ISSUE
What is the difference between absence of DNT header and DNT = 0?

PROPOSED LANGUAGE in FPWD:
The DNT field-value sent by a user agent must begin with the character
"1" (%x31) if DNT is enabled and there is not, to the user agent's
knowledge, a specific exception for the origin server targeted by this
request. If DNT is enabled and there is a specific exception for the
target origin server via some mechanism understood by the user agent,
then the DNT field-value sent by a user agent must begin with the
character "0" (%x30).
