I'd rather we didn't for similar reasons.

That's a good point. We don't want to hamper HTTP/2 adoption because of an unrelated compatibility change. However, one could make a similar argument about Firefox and Chrome (and, for the time being, IE) tying HTTP/2 with TLS.


If we're interested in this, maybe run an experiment where Nightly offers a
User-Agent of just "Nightly".  See how that goes.  I don't expect much
success unfortunately; UA detection is still in pretty wide use, and not
always for the wrong reasons (you won't have to search back far on
mozilla-google-discuss for an example).

I have used Nightly without any User-Agent header (using the "Modify Headers" add-on) for about a month. I have not found any major problems, but I'm sure they exist. :)
