The Origin header is used by two draft specifications.  To understand
the discussion, it's important to know which draft we're discussing.
At the moment, we're talking about CORS.  CORS is all about the Acme
Finace example (i.e., cross-origin resource sharing) and not about the
bank.com example (i.e., cross-site request forgery).
