Can we push this whole algorithm down into the CORS spec? It looks like at this point fetching-resources.html and the XHR spec are both trying to define the same algorithm (no CORS for same-origin, check origin on redirect, switch to CORS as needed, etc), and it would be pretty nice if they ended up actually defining it the same way. Simplest way to do that is to define it in the CORS spec and just reference it in the others, I'd think.

Yeah or maybe even merge this algorithm, the fetch algorithm, and the cross-origin request algorithms. Currently it's extremely hard to follow.
