I agree that the security section in CORS needs to be improved.

As for the "should CORS exist" discussion, I'll bow out of those until
we're starting to move towards officially adopting a WG decision one

affect such a decision (for the record, I don't think I've seen any
new information provided since last fall's TPAC).
