Eric Portis (he/him): that does seem like a potential problem

annevk: Eric Portis (he/him) We recently had the same problem with chtomium where tinkering with the Accept header triggered preflights. perhaps we can find a solution for this in the standard, like special-case the Accept header for the 128bytes limit?

I'd rather we just reduce the bloat somehow

annevk: Noam Rosenthal I have toyed with the idea of something like Sec-CH-Accept-Codecs when thinking about how UAs could add codecs or profiles parameters to media types when requesting videos. I ended up deciding this was a bad idea: videos are generally requested late so you can use the Media Capabilities API before making a request. But images are requested early, so maybe Client Hints could be a useful tool here.
