------- Additional Comments from Joseph Pecoraro <joepeck at webkit.org>
So I spoke with bradee-oh and he suggested I just try using an XHR through the
backend page. This seems to work in the general case, but got a bit messy in
the inspector code (since the result is a load through the inspected page we
have to block sending "willSend / didReceive / finished / failed" delegates
from being sent to the frontend for these loads. There are some further issues
that I would need to work out if we decide to go this route, but before I go
any further I'd like to see if anyone has thoughts about this approach.

yurys, pfeldman, any comments about this approach? Does it sound acceptable, or
is it too messy (if so, any suggestions)?
