That's not really a direct reason for the client to send them though. There are tons of useful things about referrers to the host.
Stripping everything but the domain should be mostly ok for the client though, so if I come from a.b.com/foo, it just sends b.com as referrer? Both "a" and "foo" can hold any amount of data so those would have to go. Sending b.com should be enough to provide traffic statistics?
