Re: [CSP] "sri" source expression to enforce SRI

At first glance it seems like a 'require-sri' keyword that you could
drop into default/script/style-src would be more straightforward.

If 'require-sri' became a new directive would it be an on/off setting
like 'upgrade-insecure-requests' or could you configure which resource
types it applies to? Would you need to?
