Hi Greg,

well, as a developer, when I want my server to have CORS enabled, I want 
them to be enabled and communicated back to the client on ANY request.
So, I agree, cors setting should be one of the first things to happen 
before security is executed.

How can we accomplish this the best?

Thanks
Gregor
