Currently getResponseHeader() returns the empty string for invalid
header names. Would people object if I changed that to returning
null instead (basically making it equivalent to headers not part
of the response)? Thanks.
What do current implementations do for these cases?
I think three out of four return null for a non-existent header (IE
being the exception, iirc). Firefox and an internal version of Opera
also return null for invalid headers. (Although for Firefox it seems
to differ on based on whether the request has happened already or
something...)
In that case I think it makes sense to use null for both missing and
invalid headers.
