+Subject: Don't use extended attributes (--xattr) by default
+
+* src/init.c (defaults): Set enable_xattr to false by default
+* src/main.c (print_help): Reverse option logic of --xattr
+* doc/wget.texi: Add description for --xattr
+
+Users may not be aware that the origin URL and Referer are saved
+including credentials, and possibly access tokens within
+the urls.
