Why is it unimaginable that I may want to maximize privacy for my
users? The domain my users are coming from is between me and my users.
If CSRF would work securely without any referer header (and not leak
the same data some other way), I would choose to disable it entirely.
Often the domain is enough to leak what kind of data a user was
reading or interacting with. For example, what might one assume
(rightly or wrongly) if the referer header was
"https://wikileaks.org";?
