Currently getResponseHeader() returns the empty string for invalid

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...)
I think firefox throws if we haven't received the full response head
yet. Which I sort of think makes sense since we don't know yet what the
correct return value is.
