I think Ping-From should be registered as "deprecated".

It's not considered for removal from the HTML Standard (see https://github.com/whatwg/html/labels/removal%2Fdeprecation) and this is the first time I've seen that being suggested.

I'm also not sure what you expect from me here. https://httpwg.org/http-core/draft-ietf-httpbis-semantics-latest.html#rfc.section.16.3.1 doesn't give guidance on this and the comment isn't particularly constructive.

I was under the impression that four out of five browsers had already refused to implement, but it looks like a few have just configured it off by default.
