Description Maciej Stachowiak 2019-04-11 22:51:27 PDT

Feature request: add "ping" or "beacon" resource type for content blockers instead of folding <a ping> and Beacon into "raw". It might be useful for a content blocker to differentially block pings without affecting Fetch, XHR, or other "raw" loads.

See also https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153559 and https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154811 (though maybe it's enough to limit "raw" to Fetch and XHR for the latter).
