Hi

I'd like to propose a new feature to enable browsers to send custom headers through the API.
The Websocket spec supports this, however the API does not expose this feature.

We're trying to integrate bearer token authentication using the Authorization header,
this is mainly for single-page apps that don't use session (cookie-based) authentication.

Thanks
