@wanderview, it actually looks like the Firefox fetch code is [intentionally allowing about:blank through](https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/dom/fetch/FetchDriver.cpp#479). It looks like it was added in  [bug 1216687](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1216687), but I don't see any notes as to why.
