ISSUE-90: Exposing more (~infinite) response headers [CORS]

Mark Nottingham comments on the asymmetry of exposing the body of the response but only a tiny subset of the headers. He argues for

 * Expanding this whitelist and
 * Giving responses of resources a way to indicate which headers are ok to expose

or

 * Turning it into a blacklist

He indicated he was not satisfied deferring this issue to CORS2 and considers it a showstopper for CORS1.
