Re: [whatwg/fetch] More CORB-protected MIME types - safelist-based approach (#721)

I chatted with @jakearchibald and I'm no longer convinced range requests are much of an issue. It seems we first always determine the type of a media resource and then any range requests will go to a fixed URL, meaning it'll only potentially "leak" content of a resource identified to be a media resource. See also https://github.com/whatwg/fetch/issues/144#issuecomment-368040980. The main thing remaining here is an exact list of file signatures we would want to safelist. And not allow extensions of that list (use CORS).

@lukewagner also considers a basic JavaScript-validating function to be doable (if you don't want the performance hit, use a valid `Content-Type` or CORS).

Which leaves CSS, getting telemetry on that would be great.
