---------------------------------------

[~purplecabbage] tells me WP8 does this without a local webserver: https://github.com/apache/cordova-wp8/blob/master/template/cordovalib/XHRHelper.cs

> Because of CORS, you can only open requests using http*:// schemes, not file.
> Ultimately this might be a new plugin. The plugin needs to:
> 1. Run a local webserver 
> 2. Proxy XmlHttpRequest.open and rewrite urls that go to (1) 
> The local webserver in (1) will route the requests using the appropriate handler, and will need to utilize a secret to prevent unauthorized access.
> Something like this: https://github.com/phonegap/connect-phonegap/blob/master/res/middleware/proxy.js
