Normally, only credentialed requests pass cookies. When a client tries to send
a credentialed requests, the browser will send a preflight request first (an
OPTIONS request with some CORS-specific headers like Origin), and only sends
the request (with cookies) if the Allow-Origin and Allow-Credentials response
headers are OK. Uncredentialed requests are transmitted without cookies (
http://www.w3.org/TR/cors/#make-a-request-steps - "...and include user
credentials if the credentials flag is true". Though apparently not all
implementations honor this:

).
