Description

Similar to the nightmare API https://github.com/segmentio/nightmare#gotourl-headers

It would be good to be able to access the http status code and other information as provided by nightmare .. also final url after a redirect.

Thanks.

Research direction
Investigate how Nightmare exposes status codes and final URLs after navigation. Then examine Chromeless' goto method implementation in the source code to understand the current return type. Look for any existing discussions in the 2 comments for further clarification. Propose an API change to return an object containing status code and final URL, or add a separate method.
