Chrome is continuing to be a major pain with local file access. If you 
try to get openlayer to open a local kml file, you get error...

"XMLHttpRequest cannot load file:///H:/eclipse/PBE/WebContent/data/TWT/TWT.kml. 
Cross origin requests are only supported for HTTP."

for example. I have complained at 
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=40787
but google have said they wont fix. I got around in Chrome's similar refusal to 
load local
json files with script tag insertion and wrapping the json in a function call.
Any similar bright ideas on how this might be engineered in openlayers?
