Different "User-Agent" header information in HTTP request for Google Maps and Google Maps for Mobile #331

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

Which products are relevant to this feature request?
Google Maps, Google maps for mobile

What should this feature enhancement do?

Send different identification field in "User-Agent" header when connecting 
to third party servers (e.g., for retrieving KML files).

As now, for both of products, "User-Agent" header is the same:

    "Kml-Google; ( http://code.google.com/apis/kml), gzip"

and server side scripts cannot distinguish between them.

Are there any currently known workarounds that produce the same, or
similar, result?

Yes, add custom parameter in GET request.
