As long as it's only returning public data (i.e. XS-XHR without cookies)
I don't see what would be wrong about enabling this. Would not help me
in particular because I deal with a lot of bugs that are restricted to
groups, but could be useful for a lot of other things.

Allowing bugzilla installations to specify "trusted servers" for more
complete sharing could be useful and done safely, but I don't think it
would be useful or safe for the BMO installation.
