Re: [beacon] CORS and Credentials questions.

Right, that is what I thought too.

What I understand is (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/HTTP/Access_control_CORS):

“””
Also, if POST is used to send request data with a Content-Type other than application/x-www-form-urlencoded, multipart/form-data, or text/plain, e.g. if the POST request sends an XML payload to the server using application/xml or text/xml, then the request is preflighted.
“””
