Extension summary

This plugin was developed due to a website not consistently handling a request's 'Origin' header.

Ex.: If the header 'Origin' is not present, the request would be successful. If the header 'Origin' is present with a null value, the request is failing.

Chrome and Firefox don't handle the 'Origin' header in the same way when dealing with data urls, which caused Chrome to not work and Firefox to work. This plugin fix it, so I can keep using Chrome.
