Currently, Chromium seems to do that. However, it's not specified. Firefox doesn't do that.

That discrepancy was reported recently at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1753202.

Ah, that is correct. We do replace \n with \r\n on Windows. It is also true while writing HTML headers during standard HTML format write operation on Windows. This is also the expected behavior on Windows so I'm going to add this to the spec in #158
