Which will make the first-party data controller responsible and in 
breach of _current_ European legislation in this area. I agree that 
DNT:unset is problematic in this area. While I see value in your 
proposal, I'd like to see the same-party flag being included in it. 
Basically, a first-party signalling a third-party that DNT:1 while the 
user agent signals DNT:unset should also signal same-party to the user 
agents that signal DNT:1 but are willing to make exceptions.
