Request for Unified Header for web servers to signal support

Reported by homakov@gmail.com, Mar 22 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_3) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/56.0.2924.87 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
This is a feature request to fix an existing problem of so many headers and defaults we currently have. 

SOTA: 1 header would be a way for a website to signal that it supports version 1 of latest state-of-the-art how web apps should be built. It would include all those x-frame-options, x-nosniff etc 

Basically, one header to set all the attributes, headers and things we do manually just to stay compatible.

I've made a post with more details here https://medium.com/@homakov/request-for-a-new-header-state-of-the-art-9a1935bbad72#.d8qnjp1zd

Interested to hear your opinion! 

What is the expected behavior?

hamakov@, thanks for posting your opinion!

As far as I understand, you seem to be proposing a new header
for HTTP protocol, which is larger than only Chrome, and
unfortunately this is a place for discussing Chrome or Chromium
specific bugs.

I'd think better place for discussing such things is IETF (where HTTP
standard is discussed) or W3C (where any web APIs are discussed).

At this point, we cannot do anything for Chrome.
