My goal is to set the "referer" (sic) header for each Article, for certain referrer-protected pages.

Initially I thought of "get_browser", but it's only called once. "clone_browser" is called at about the right rate, but it's passed the Browser returned by get_browser(), which has the first page only, not the target one.

So how can I get the target URL in clone_browser or otherwise get a chance to modify headers on the way to retrieval?

Thanks.

Use get_obfuscated_article() in your recipe. You can clone the browser yourself in that method and change the headers however you like.
