Comment(by pde):

 In parallel, I've been discussing this with the Mozilla security team.
 One horrible workaround option (assuming we don't learn anything
 actionable from the approach mikeperry mentions) would be to redirect to
 about:blank straightaway, and then on to the real destination. It would
 probably have to be !about:blank#token in order to keep track of what
 we're doing.

 I also tested to see if this problem exists with Mozilla's native HSTS
 implementation. It doesn't. Unfortunately, all of
 [http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-
 central/source/netwerk/protocol/http/nsHttpChannel.cpp#1430 that machinery
 is asynchronous native code] that's not available to scripts.
