No, it seems to do everything properly here (except when hitting `g' in
the eww buffer -- it sends over a referer then too, but I don't really
think we care).

It punts all this to url-lastloc-privacy-level, which allows the user to
customise all this, so there's nothing to do here, and I'm closing this
bug report.
