Related notes:

Our current proposal does not include means to mirror DNT headers. We also included a requirement that DNT headers must not be modified by intermediaries.

2012-02-07: All current proposals do not consider echoing the user preference. As a consequence, I'd like to declare agreement and close this issue.
