That does indeed work. What doesn't work is
```x-wmapp0:/www/some-other-file.html```. The leading slash is causing a 404.
Basically,
[this](https://github.com/apache/cordova-wp8/blob/0f80d8802ce846f062d7bc343a0e46534bdbc7a9/wp8/template/cordovalib/XHRHelper.cs#L194-L205)
code is only useful if you have absolute URLs that do not include the
protocol. If the URL includes the protocol, then all that code is bypassed. My
modification would first strip off the protocol so that code can do its magic.

> The code does not properly strip slashes from the path name when the URL is
> absolute, because in that case the path name is prefixed with the protocol,
> so the protocol must be stripped off first.
