I am looking at the current Working Draft of the XHR spec at the end
of section 4.6.3
http://www.w3.org/TR/XMLHttpRequest/#the-send-method
"Unless set through setRequestHeader() user agents should set the
Accept and Accept-Language headers as well."
This doesn't specify what the user agent should/must do in the case
where the Accept header is set through setRequestHeader(). In my
opinion something like the following would be better.
"If Accept is set through setRequestHeader(), user agents must not
set, append or otherwise modify the Accept header. If the Accept
header is not set thorugh setRequestHeader(), user agents should set
the Accept header. Same for the Accept-Language header."
I think avoiding the word "Unless" would also be an improvement as it
is clearer to just use "If".
Fixed (in a somewhat different way). Thanks!
