Re: [whatwg/fetch] Some servers seem to expect 'Accept-Encoding : identity' to serve Range requests (#747) from youennf on 2018-05-30 (public-webapps-github@w3.org from May 2018)

I did not make a lot of testing, SW+Media loading is currently broken in WebKit due to the stripping of the Range header.

This is very visible in Safari since media loading will fail if not receiving a 206 response. Firefox and Edge might accept 200 responses even if they sent range requests.

I guess that some let-s-try-to-serve-compressed-content server logic might kick in and drop the Range header information, even though in the end, the media content is served as is since already compressed.
