Disk cache speculative validation requests do not have the 'Referer' HTTP header set. This is breaking some streaming sites (such as twitch.tv).

Comment on attachment 274999 [details] Patch View in context: https://bugs.webkit.org/attachment.cgi?id=274999&action=review r=me > LayoutTests/http/tests/cache/disk-cache/speculative-validation/validation-request-expected.txt:8 > +PASS validationRequestHeader('Referer') is initialReferer The test seems rather barebones considering this affects all headers, not just "Referer'
