title: Data URI scheme and CORS
body: <p>I think that data URI scheme is not a cross domain request, but I have found that firefox and chrome behave in a very different way.</p>
  
  <p>I know doing this is a little weird. 
  The question is not <em>why the hell want you ever to do a request on a data:text/json;, URI?</em>, but <em>would this be possible?</em></p>

  <pre><code>$.get('data:text/json;,{"foo":"bar"}',function(data){
     alert(JSON.stringify(data));
  })
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Firefox does, chrome doesn't.</p>
