Summary [Mac] Synthetic ResourceResponses cannot be sent over IPC without losing most...

ResourceResponse does not have any clear way to keep platform response and WebCore data in sync. Calling any setter on the response leaves these in inconsistent state. Furthermore, even if NSURLRequest was originally null, building it from WebCore data is extremely lossy - we don't even use a correct HTTP status code, defaulting to 0. WebKit2 IPC only encodes NSURLRequest, so the other side will see a bad response with 0 status code for anything that was built synthetically (including but not limited to Blob reading responses). Until rebuilding an NSURLRequest from platform data is implemented (and that's non-trivial), we'll have to send both over IPC.

Comment on attachment 191833 [details] proposed patch Not a fan of the huge swath of new fixmes without a bug #, but I think this is fine.
