As I said at the issue: we don't want to add 
"Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *", this is a security thing.

Allowing you to configure mgmt so that it allows custom headers to be 
set would be OK I guess.

What is your use case though? Are you intending to write an alternate 
web UI? :-)

Cheers, Simon
