 Diagnosing redirect loops can often be very confusing because many parts
 of a system can perform a redirect. The introduction of the X-Redirect-By
 header would allow the application to be identified more easily.

 Yoast SEO already sends this header and we've found it to be very useful
 many a time, at nearly no overhead.
