All, Some web site developers use redirects to strip out referrer headers from requests issued from users clicking links on their site. This causes a blocking round trip and so has a really big impact on web performance. Can we give developers an alternative to this technique that will not incur a performance penalty? For instance, can linkable elements support a łno-referrer˛ attribute or something similar? Thanks, Peter
