I think Freddy's proposal was related to the host-wide pinned items, not
the per-page CSP header.

Those pins could certainly fit into a manifest. Maybe that's even a good
idea!

The reason we've traditionally resisted going that route is that it would
involve either reducing the security of the initial request, or causing a
synchronous request to block loading a page. Neither seems like an awesome
tradeoff.
