Bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=951104

Rationale: There's already a myriad of ways to obtain this data
through script. We might as well ship the protocol that both Chrome
and Safari ship in the hope that along with sendBeacon() it decreases
the usage of the slower alternatives; ultimately giving users a better
experience.

Previously: This was already discussed in
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/mozilla.dev.platform/DxvZVnc8rfo/RxSnyIFqxoQJ
and I think concluded given Jonas Sicking's statement in the
aforementioned bug, but since it's been a few years without action we
thought it would be worth it to send another ping.
