CORS authentication? What workarounds do you have in mind?
The only workarounds I can think of is adding the credentials data to the
posted body instead of using HTTP auth, or having authenticated sessions
running and use withCredentials.

Well, on the HTTP level auth is not a new feature at all ;-). So IMHO comment
#17 is part of trying to "define the existing feature set".
