Re: [whatwg/fetch] Some servers seem to expect 'Accept-Encoding : identity' to serve Range requests (#747)

I understand this is a layering violation, and that theoretically, set and append in that case should give the exact same value.
In WebKit, our media engine will actually set this header beforehand. If we were to blindly implement the specification, we would probably end-up with 'identity, identity' as the header value for media loads. I do not feel strongly here though.
