@matthewtrask Who do we petition to get that added to the spec?

@andybroomfield could make a middleware that intercepts the request and converts it to this and then a parser to parse out everything back to HTTP.

Silly but fun.

@matthewtrask nice, and then write a browser extension to rewrite the requests client side.

@matthewtrask my only nitpick would be that as you know the server name, it should be yours sincerely I think.

@andybroomfield well if the queen is making the request, every server would be “her servant” or “her subject” which could be an alias for the address
