> `User-Agent` can be set (Chrome might have a bug here), but requires a CORS preflight as well.

Aparently this is https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=571722, which past-me said he was fine with as long as it required a preflight. Silly past-me. :)

I think present-me would be happier if we chose not to make a replacement for `User-Agent` user-modifiable.
