HTTP/2 draft-14 Section 8.1. allows for an optional HEADERS frame ("trailers") following DATA frames in the HTTP request and response.

https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-httpbis-http2-14#section-8.1

This is required to support implementations like gRPC in the browser (and future protocols built on HTTP/2).

Does Firefox currently support HTTP Trailers or just ignores them? Thanks.

hi Alexander_Litus, i've asked in the developer channel for the networking component about this issue... apparently trailers are not supported right now in firefox (or rather silently discarded) - they get read in order to maintain the appropriate state in the header compressor, but then they are just thrown away.

Does Firefox team has plans for handling trailers to fully support gRPC? Please see gRPC protocol.

i would encourage you to post this question directly to the networking team's mailing list to get a better answer about this (and maybe even get it on their radar): https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Projects/Necko
