Ok. It seems like there's agreement that the spec is the behavior we want.
So we're just waiting on implementations for that specific section.
It looks like WebKit has added support for the remaining referrer policies
in their latest technical preview. John, do you know if folks in WebKit
have looked at the CSS recommendations in the spec? Is that something y'all
think you might find time to work on in the somewhat near future?
If not, I think we're just stuck waiting on this document.
