I can't see where $.ajax prevents the call to beforeSend, which is where the reporter in #7424 was trying to set headers. Maybe it fell into the jsonp case? A specific test case would help.

There's no limitation I know of in current code that would prevent setting headers based on the type or even dataType options. Of course, whether or not the headers are actually transmitted will depend on the transport (so you can set them all you want when doing jsonp, they won't get sent for cross-domain requests).

Yeah, I don't think there's an issue here.
