Re:Developers don't understand CORS

I think what GP commented is a very common misconception. CORS is not the source of the developer trouble (that would be cross-origin restrictions), it is a way around them. But it is perhaps understandable where the confusion comes from... Browsers always mention CORS headers as part of error messages, after all.

+1 - This is a large part of the trouble. It leads to a lot of stuff being defined as the inverse of some other behavior - behavior that the developer does not have control or understanding of.
