Bug 177913 – Web Inspector: Should be able to distinguish duplicate response headers without combining values into a single comma separated list (Set-Cookie)

Should be able to distinguish duplicate response headers without combining values into a single comma separated list (Set-Cookie)

A Valid HTTP Response setting multiple cookies would be:

> Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
> Date: Thu, 05 Oct 2017 02:32:05 GMT
> Connection: Keep-Alive
> Set-Cookie: multi-1=multi-1-value
> Set-Cookie: multi-2=multi-2-value
> Set-Cookie: multi-3=multi-3-value
> ...

However Web Inspector is told about these separate / distinct Set-Cookie headers as a single list:

> Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
> Date: Thu, 05 Oct 2017 02:32:05 GMT
> Connection: Keep-Alive
> Set-Cookie: multi-1=multi-1-value, multi-2=multi-2-value, multi-3=multi-3-value

Web Inspector should be able to know what was actually received, therefore it should be able to distinguish between duplicate response headers and actual response headers with a comma separated list.
